11.1.2026 35 at Dipa aunty’s house. Anyone who knows me, knows how much she meant to me. I am grateful to @motwayne for graciously honoring my request to celebrate my birthday this year at her home. I cooked Khao Seuy and made mulled wine that she taught me. 11.1.2002 Dipa aunty was the line producer of Makdee. My first solid memory of hers was when I turned 11 on Makdee’s set. She had “Happy Birthday Shweta” written on the big production black board in our hotel lobby in Alibaug (where we shot for the film). I was so happy to read the message, which was otherwise meant for call times, pick up and other scheduleing/production related things. “Of course you are the star of our film! Everyone should know it’s your birthday” Dipa aunty and @vishalrbhardwaj Vishal uncle organised a beautiful terrace party for me after pack up with my favourite food (mostly junk) I think one of the reasons I still love what I do so much is because Makdee was such a fulfilling experience. Dipa aunty, Vishal uncle (and the entire team, my mother included) made me feel so emotionally safe that I am still hungry and interested in films and want to explore more. 11.1.2016 I was already working at Phantom Films as a script consultant under my then boss, head of development @nehasinha_roy Dipa aunty gave me this job in 2014 when I needed it the most “chin up, keep walking..” Over the years Dipa aunty has been my friend, patient listener, travel buddy, mentor and more. She would complain when I interrupted her and my mother’s lunch meetings “Mishti, why have you called your daughter here? She won’t let us talk.” So curious to know while they were catching up on life, relationships and exchanging notes as single mothers. My friend, when I got married and my therapist during my divorce. Always interested in my dating life and my crushes.. “you have a crush on him? Oh but Shwets.. he is gay” She helped me budget my directorial Retake too “always pay daily wages first..” and one of the first people to make a purchase from C Sharp. She created a community of people, especially women who cheered for each other and needed no reasons to celebrate. (Continued in comments)
