'Homebound' stars Janhvi Kapoor, Ishaan Khatter and Vishal Jethwa, and director Neeraj Ghaywan talked about their 'friendship' film and Martin Scorsese's notes.

Neeraj Ghaywan ‘s Homebound follows two childhood friends from a small North Indian village as they take an exam to become a police and chase a job that promises them the dignity they have long been denied. With the film following two friends on the cusp of finding their vocation, Ghaywan and the cast revealed alternative careers they would have pursued if they were not a filmmaker or actor. Asking for a beat from his fellow actors and Ghaywan, Jethwa proceeded to give a rousing rendition of a Gujarati song in the Deadline studio, which was met with enthusiasm and rapturous cheers.
