R. Balki, a friend indeed!

R. Balki, a friend indeed!



Anything for friendship, believes filmmaker R. Balakrishnan, fondly called R.Balki, who will launch his friend Aban Bharucha Deohans' book "What A life Yaar!", along with his wife Gauri Shinde.

Deohans, an ad-filmmaker herself, has made several commercials with her cinematographer husband Kiran Deohans for her company Candid Creations.

Some of her ads have featured celebrities like Amitabh Bachchan, Vidya Balan, Shahid Kapoor, Aishwarya Rai Bachahan, Saif Ali Khan and Sachin Tendulkar.

Aban has now stepped into the world of writing, and she chose a series of short fiction stories to be compiled together as her first book. Titled "What A life Yaar!" the book captures the moods and hues of everyday life through 24 short stories.

Aban and Balki know each other since long, and together, they have done a lot of ad films since. So, Balki didn't have to think twice before agreeing to launch her book.

Also, Samir Soni and Sandhya Mridul, who have done umpteen ad films for Aban, will be reading excerpts from the book at the event Saturday.
