Shahana Goswami's 'Four Years Later'
In a career spanning two decades, Shahana Goswami has been a part of only two stories that had romance at the centre of them. The first was Ru-Ba-Ru (2008), and the second is Four Years Later, an eight-part Indo-Australian series created by Mithila Gupta. Co-starring Akshay Ajit Singh, the show revolves around a newly-wed couple forced to live apart as the husband moves to Sydney while the wife continues to live in India. 'The portrayal of their lives felt very real. The kinds of issues in their relationship were nuanced and mature. It isn't just typical male-bashing or gender normative issues between couples,' says Goswami. Shot in Mumbai and Jaipur before moving to Sydney, the show uses both English and Hindi. 'It was so refreshing to have Indian characters in the lead who spoke in their natural accents.'
