Recommendation

I – alongside my writing partner, Shabib Ullah – am looking to shoot the PILOT episode, for our semi-autobiographical sitcom. Based in an Indian restaurant, the pilot will be shot as a mock-u-mentary.

The location for our shoot will be SOUTHEND-ON-SEA, ESSEX. We have a killer script, and are now looking for actors to bring our project to life. We will be looking to submit this pilot to potential production companies, with the aim of getting it commissioned.

The parts will be UNPAID, however we will cover reasonable travel expenses and you will be provided food and drink on set every day. Furthermore, we will send you footage for you show reels, and you will be credited

Audition / Rehearsal / Production dates

Auditions dates have yet to be decided, but will take place in late July. We will begin shooting on the 20th September 2019 until the 29th September 2019.
