The father-daughter duo has worked on \u2018Sanak \u2013 Ek Junoon\u2019 together, which is written by him and directed by her. Talking about working together and learning from him, Krishna Bhatt says, \u201cThere was something about filmmaking that really intrigued me and a chance encounter of working with my dad on a film made me make up my mind and I knew this is what I wanted to do. And since then, I have had the opportunity to work with him on several projects. There\u2019s so much that I\u2019ve learnt from him as a writer as well as a director – right from managing actors and crew on set to storytelling, getting the little nuances right, to molding the actors in a way that we want our characters to be. He\u2019s very calm and composed whatever the situation be, and that\u2019s something that I learn from him every single day.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
