Rupin Suchak on: Alia Bhatt: This is the role of his career shift
In a conversation with Mumbai Mirror, he opened up about how Alia Bhatt played a key role in guiding him towards interior design, which eventually became an integral part of his work. Rupin Suchak shares, “After nearly five years in production design, the turning point was unexpected when I was commissioned to design the office of filmmakers (R) Balki and Gauri Shinde. What started as a project changed the direction of my career. During the project, Alia Bhatt visited the office and responded strongly to the design. Before long, he trusted me to design his house. That project opens a new chapter. One commission led to another and soon interior design became a major part of my practice”.
Rupin Suchak on the difference between film sets and houses
In the same conversation, Rupin acknowledged that creating spaces for films is a completely different challenge compared to designing one’s actual home. He said, “I always joke that I have spent most of my career building worlds that people live in for years or encounter for two seconds on the screen. Ironically, the biggest challenge in moving from film sets to homes is not creativity but patience. Film production continues with relentless deadlines. Interiors require long conversations, planning, collaboration and attention to how people live. “He concluded, saying, “Whether I’m working on a film, a commercial or a residence, the goal remains the same. I want people to feel something.
