Shooting for Arth was an ad hoc process, says veteran actor Shabana Azmi, who revealed that director Mahesh Bhatt didn't have a script ready for the 1982 acclaimed relationship drama.
The movie revolved around Inder, a filmmaker (Kulbhushan Kharbanda) involved in an extramarital affair with a successful actress, Kavita (Smita Patil), and deserts his wife Pooja (Azmi), who then embarks on a journey to find her true identity.
Arth, which won Azmi the best actress National Award, is reportedly said to be a semi-autobiographical film about Bhatt's extramarital relationship with Parveen Babi. "He (Bhatt) was going through a personal crisis. We didn't have a script, we had a story idea, and as we were shooting it went along, it was all very ad hoc. I would wear my clothes and turn up on sets. But there was something inside him. It was like he would press a button and immediately I would start, the experience was amazing."
