Dadasaheb Phalke award recipient filmmaker Adoor Gopalakrishnan, was interviewed by film director Jabbar Patel on Friday at the ongoing Orange City International Film Festival (OCIFF) at PVR Cinemas, Nagpur. The interview took place after the screening of Adoor’s 1982 film ‘Elippathayam.’  Also present during the interview on the stage along with Adoor and Patel was film critic Samar Nakhate.

Speaking about the film, Adoor shared his idea and concept behind the film even as he exclaimed that he never thought that people other than from Kerala would understand the film.
