My 3 Essential Film Books: Ishaan Khatter

Team FC

We asked the Beyond The Clouds and Dhadak actor to recommend three books on cinema that every film aspirant should read. Here's what's on Ishaan Khatter's bookshelf:

'On Acting' by Sanford Meisner

It's the most fascinating acting book, documenting Meisner's lessons to his students. It's insightful without being overly instructive.

'Making Movies' by Sidney Lumet

A no-bullshit, an all encompassing book that covers all aspects of making movies by a master filmmaker himself

'Bread Beauty Revolution' by Khwaja Ahmad Abbas

It's not a book merely about cinema, but then cinema stems from life! It's rooted in Indian history observed by a pioneering man who mastered many forms of storytelling.
