Kiran Rao Makes Her Directorial Comeback After Eight Years With These 10 Second Films
While Aamir Khan is not very active on social media, he does take to Instagram every now and then to share and promote various films, plays and shows. This time, it is his wife Kiran Rao who has come up with a few 10 second films and Aamir Khan shared this on his Instagram.

Filmmaker Kiran Rao made two short films for Facebook India and is a part of an initiative launched to redefine short mobile video ads in the country. These films touch upon two societal issues such as gender inequality and domestic violence against women. This marks her directorial comeback after eight long years!


Kiran Rao speaks about these 10 second films she has directed by saying, “Ten seconds. No audio. To shoot vertical. And show change in human behaviour. The brief for these films was certainly exciting. I must say that it was some great learning as a film-maker. The mobile medium has a set of realities which as content makers one must embrace and play with. Once you understand the medium, the storytelling comes naturally. It was fun making these films, and it is great to be back doing what I love most.”

Her husband Aamir Khan showed support to his wife by sharing these two films on Instagram and captions it, “Hey guys, Kiran has made some 10sec films. I didn't know it was even possible to tell a story in 10 seconds! She has shown me how.
Check them out.
Love. 
a.”
