Filmmakers Zoya Akhtar and Reema Kagti’s production house Tiger Baby Films has launched a new series, Off The Record, which will feature behind the scene stories of films.
Off The Record aims to bring forth all the backstories, including that of an actor’s preparations and “psychology” which went into a particular scene.
“We make films for the silver screen but the little stories that make the big picture don’t always come through.”

“Here’s introducing our Off The Record series where cast and crew from the Tiger Baby clan let us in on what went into creating some of their best scenes, what their psychology was in that moment and why this particular scene will always remain unforgettable to them,” a description of the series on YouTube read.

The series kicked off from Sunday with a five-minute video, with Farhan Akhtar as the first guest.
The actor narrated the backstory of the scene where his character, Imran, from Zindagi Na Milegi Dobara meets his biological father (played by Naseeruddin Shah) for the first time.
The sets were never built. The cameras never rolled. Yet 'Don 3' has managed to become one of Bollywood's most dramatic productions, playing out not on screen, but in boardrooms, federation offices, and now, in a phone call from Salman Khan.
Mohammad Shahid Azim Khan was the man trusted to handle and protect the hard disks at Tiger Baby Digital. Over five months, he quietly removed 66 of them and sold each one for up to Rs 20,000 to a stationery shop employee in the city.
FWICE issued a Non-Cooperation Directive against Ranveer Singh after Farhan Akhtar raised concerns over his exit from ‘Don 3’, while the actor’s team called the dispute contractual and said the matter should not be handled through the federation.
