director went through extensive storyboarding before beginning shoot of film as he was of firm belief that storyboard gives a blueprint to film which makes shooting and execution process easier. According to a report by news ncy PTI, director spoke about book and film.

This book way purports that storyboarding is an essential shortcut to making good films. I actually storyboard to quell my own anxiety. I only feel safe when I have all shots of day storyboarded in my palm. Whenever I go to set without storyboards, I feel like I’m standing in middle of Grand Central Terminal wearing only my underwear.

y can be shot exactly as drawn and serve as valuable blueprints for crew members. finished film never deviates far from storyboards, and this allows crew to trust process. Crew members who have worked with me in past are especially aware of this.
