Thanks guys.

Normally adequate turnaround isn't an issue on most of the stuff I work on and if production try and cut into it the crew pretty much rebels so its a non issue. Recently however I was booked for two shows back to back on consecutive days. The first show was supposed to wrap at midnight but instead we wrapped at 4 in the morning. I had a noon call time for the next day just barely got enough sleep. I wanted advice on how to avoid this problem in the future. Should I simply not commit to back to back shoots or is there a better way to handle it. It wasn't really production's fault that we ran over. Just some issues with the location.

There have been a lot of good Indian films made on the topic of Kashmir like "Roja" and "Yahaan" amongst the more recent ones. There are lots of films shot before the 80's which is when the situation actually started to detoriate. I would also suggest reading "Freedom at Midnight" to get a historical perspective. I could send you a list of films for ref if you think that would help. Best of luck with the project.
