Aamir Khan’s 'Dangal' dialogue teacher turns director

Prakash Bharadwaj has been quite an influence on Aamir Khan and his films. The speech trainer has helped Aamir prepare and get his diction right for several films — from Rang De Basanti to PK, Dangal and the upcoming Thugs Of Hindostan.

Now, he is turning director with a film of his own. His directorial debut, Colors Of Life, is based on a mother-and-daughter relationship. The story explores the ups and downs in the life of a single, working mother played by Rituparna Sengupta, and the relationship with her daughter (Payel Roy). Although it has a complete Bengali cast, the film is made in English.
