Facts and Behind the Scenes

Private is Deepak Deon’s first film as director, where he also wrote the story, making it a personal project shot mostly in Kerala to keep that local flavour. The team dedicated the first song ‘Alone’ to kids in Gaza, which got some online buzz for its heartfelt message. Originally set for August 1, it got pushed to October 10 after censor delays, and not many know it draws from everyday stranger stories the director heard.

Another interesting bit is the small crew kept costs low, focusing on fresh faces like Meenakshi Anoop alongside Indrans for that real mix. Most folks aren’t aware the film screened at festivals like IFFK 2024, getting praise for its simple charm. Shooting wrapped with some emotional scenes that had the cast tearing up, building a family vibe on set that’s exciting for fans.
