Tisca Chopra turns writer & producer for small screen?

Tisca Chopra will soon be turning her hand to writing and producing for the small screen. Chopra who appeared alongside Anil Kapoor in the hit TV series ’24’ in India, is keen to make “progressive” content for television.

Reported in Asian Age, Chopra shares what she has in mind, “I’ve got something in head which I might just produce for a TV series — a limited edition TV series. It’s a crazy concept; it’s  a thriller set in Indian heartland. I’ve written it myself too. I think it might be interesting for viewers.”

She further added, “I think television these days is regressive and there are no two ways about that. TV as we see it today, needs a change and somehow we have not been able to crack what that change might be. People have tried various things but I don’t think those have worked. I don’t think anyone has got down to it seriously in a big way. We try to go with the notion that we have to try something more ‘Indian’ or something more ‘rooted’, coming from our Indian head.”
