"Making of Then Again was a true satisfying organic experience", said Pratap. Directing the first feature is always memorable and especially when it highlights important issues in society, he mentions. Pratap concludes that "Then Again is a very interesting blend of art and commerce, while still being a reflection of the society we live in. Every film has constraints like we did. We are happy that we were able to tell an important story with these constraints that is connecting with more and more people, which is evident in their reactions at the screenings."
