In English: “Removed the Instagram application from the device”
As per Hindustan Times report, the director expressed his opinion on social media, stating, “I consider social media to be quite pointless; it’s a considerable time-waster. The idea of having a blue tick or being active on social media bothers me. I intend to keep social media out of my life.” Taking precautions, Dhulia not only removed the Instagram app from his phone but also made a commitment not to return to the platform for the time being.
The director is involved in or working on these projects
Regarding his work commitments, Tigmanshu has wrapped up the shooting for his upcoming film ‘Ghamasan,’ starring Arshad Warsi and Pratik Gandhi. In addition, he is set to commence work on the second season of his OTT show ‘The Great Indian Murder’ soon.
