Saksham Sharma Born and brought up in Uttar Pradesh, I grew up to become an Urban Planner by qualification. I would not call the vocation of urban planning boring, for it has given me varied enriching experiences, but it is not something I want to do full-time for the rest of my life, given that my passion lies in storytelling. I quit my job, joined NID as a film student, and submitted myself to learning the craft. In the past two years, I have brushed my skills as a film and video professional through various opportunities that came my way. I have my likes and dislikes when it comes to films. I learn a lot from the works of Vishal Bhardwaj, Martin McDonagh, Dibakar Banerjee, and the Coen Brothers. Their films made me fall in love with the medium.
