Jeevansathi is directed by Shivankar Arora and written by Shipra Arora. The brother-sister duo has also produced the film for their channel Content Ka Keeda.
“The experience of working with them has always been wonderful. They know their job and hence the script is written to the crisp, followed by flawless execution. Actors and directors are like water and containers. The container can shape the water or spill and waste it. Shivankar and Shipra have always added to the journey making the water more tempting and desirable. The set location, scripting, rehearsal and the final cut, the entire process is fun filled with such amazing team members that we often lose track of time. They know how to tickle the souls of viewers and deliver insightful messages through relatable stories,” Manmohan praises the duo.
