The crew improvises and fights the Zombies, Bollywood style
"I think Hrithik Roshan will make a brilliant Zombie and a scary one too. He can be a lead in any Zombie movie. But once Rock The Shaadi comes out, you will soon come to know the 'zombiegiri' from Abhay Deol. He too makes a decent Zombie. Did I say 'decent zombie'? (Laughs)"
Co-director Meera attacks a Zombie with a boom mike
"Zombie Talkies is available in all leading bookstores in Mumbai. It's an 'R' rated graphic novel. We've gone all out in blood, gore, language and even sex. You don't see many graphic novels pushing the envelope in India. It's a whole new hybrid of Zombies meeting Bollywood. We've put them in an Indian context."
The first one to turn is actress Srinita Chopra who attacks her co-star Aakash Kumar on the set of "Shaadi of the Deadly Dulhan"
"Initially, the title of the graphic book was 'Bollywood of the Dead'. But later on, when we got the publishers on board we decided that it wasn't connecting to the Indian audiences in what we wanted to say. The theme was Zombies and then Bollywood. So we decided to call it 'Zombie Talkies'. It's universally accepted then. It made more sense."

Real Zombies attack a bus full of junior artists' in Zombie makeup on their way to the set
"The only international comic books I've read are the Archie comics. I moved to the US when I was seventeen. I went to an Arts school there and a whole new world opened up in front of my eyes. A lot of my colleagues were comic book nerds. For me, the hardcore Marvel comics and all other graphic books came later. If I rewind my life, I've grown up on Tinkle and Archie."
