Mirror had earlier reported (August 16) that Mohit Suri was going to mentor four participants through the making of their short films on MTV’S Fame-istan. Now, actress Radhika Apte has joined in as mentor too.

“The format is such that each month a film mentor will introduce the chosen director of the month who will then call out to actors and other crew to join him. Post the shoot, the mentor will give his or her verdict on the film,” informs a source.

Commenting on her stint, Radhika says, “Filmmaking is an art and duration isn’t really a deciding factor, the impact is what matters.”

The show kicks off with a call-forentry promo for actors and technicians. “I’m glad that there’s a platform for budding moviemakers to bring their imagination to life. I’d like to tell these youngsters that they shouldn’t let anything stifle their voice,” Mohit had said in an earlier interview to Mirror (August 16).
