Highway Nights Is A True Incident, Film Director Shubham Singh Said - "I Got Inspiration To Make A Film From A Little Girl"

The story idea for Highway Nights movie can come from anywhere. Talking about Prakash Jha starrer short film Highway Nights, the idea of ​​making this film came to its producer-director Shubham Singh at a dhaba. Shubham says, 'Sometimes an incident touches your heart.

I was sitting in a dhaba on a highway. There he met a girl. She was engaged in prostitution just so that she could get food. The truth is so dark that I did not want to show it. I had to convey an important message to people through entertainment. I included some imaginary things in it. I think education is the only way to get out of the quagmire of prostitution whose message is in this. Prakash plays a truck driver in the film, Who helps that girl. Shubham says Prakash sir already knows how to drive a truck. I was surprised to know this. He has driven the truck himself, no body double was needed. He and none of the actors have taken a single penny for doing this film.

He adds, I followed him for four months, then he said yes. Earlier the name of the film was Gujarat Highway. He was the one who suggested the name Highway Nights. Earlier, I was afraid that how would I direct Prakash sir. But the ease with which he worked, felt like I was working with a budding artiste. We shot the film in two nights.
