Media Release Vikramaditya Motwane's Next Starring Harshvardhan Kapoor to Release on 25Th May 2018 Mumbai, November 10, 2017 Media Release Vikramaditya Motwane’s next starring Harshvardhan Kapoor to release on 25th May 2018 Mumbai, November 10, 2017: Anil D. Ambani led Reliance Entertainment and Eros International have come together to release Phantom Films’ next untitled production on 25th May 2018. The film is directed by Vikramaditya Motwane and stars Harshvardhan Kapoor in the lead. The film, a vigilante drama set in Mumbai, is the story of one young man’s quest for revenge, and the discovery that he’s destined for much bigger things. The film promises some intense action and well-crafted hand combat fights, which have been designed by an international crew, and is shot at some never before seen locations in and around Mumbai. It has music by Amit Trivedi & lyrics by Amitabh Bhattacharya, who have worked with Motwane on his earlier films Lootera and Udaan. Motwane’s last release, Trapped, won huge acclaim and a good box office run apart from starting Rajkummar Rao’s dream run this year. Motwane, who has been busy with shooting Netflix’s first India Original series Sacred Games, says, “The story explores love, friendship, anger and heroism and its relevance in today’s times. It’s been with me for a very long time and I’m delighted at the way it’s turned out. The action sequences are awesome and I can’t wait for the audience to see it.” Shibasish Sarkar, COO Reliance Entertainment said, “We are happy to collaborate with Phantom Films for this film which will resonate with public at large in a unique way.

The original texts include religious epics, Shakespeare’s plays, Bengali novels which were written pre- independence, and Hollywood films. This venture uses adaptation theory as well as postmodernist and postcolonial theories to examine how women and men are represented in the adaptations as well as how contemporary audience expectations help to create the identity of the characters in the films.

Many students trained under the Super 30 program have joined some of the top global companies like Adobe, Samsung Research Institute, Amazon etc. Anand Kumar said, “I trust Vikas Bahl with my life story and I believe that he will make a heartfelt film.

  • Representation of Sikh Character in Bollywood Movies:A Study on Selective Bollywood Movies
    PJAEE, 17(6) (2020) REPRESENTATION OF SIKH CHARACTER IN BOLLYWOOD MOVIES:A STUDY ON SELECTIVE BOLLYWOOD MOVIES Navpreet Kaur Assistant Professor University Institute of Media Studies, Chandigarh University, Punjab, India [email protected] Navpreet Kaur, Representation Of Sikh Character In Bollywood Movies: A Study On Selective Bollywood Movies– Palarch’s Journal of Archaeology of Egypt/Egyptology 17(6) (2020), ISSN 1567-214X. Keywords: Bollywood, Sikh, Sikh Character, War, Drama, Crime, Biopic, Action, Diljit Dosanhj, Punjab Abstract Sikhs have been ordinarily spoken to in mainstream Hindi film either as courageous warriors or as classless rustics. In the patriot message in which the envisioned was an urban North Indian, Hindu male, Sikh characters were uprooted and made to give entertainment. Bollywood stars have donned the turban to turn Sikh cool, Sikhs view the representation of the community in Bollywood as demeaning and have attempted to revive the Punjabi film industry as an attempt at authentic self-representation. But with the passage of time the Bollywood makers experimented with the role and images of Sikh character. Sunny Deol's starrer movie Border and Gadar led a foundation of Sikh identity and real image of Sikh community and open the doors for others. This paper examines representation of Sikhs in new Bollywood films to inquire if the romanticization of Sikhs as representing rustic authenticity is a clever marketing tactic used by the Bollywood. Introduction Bollywood is the sobriquet for India's Hindi language film industry, situated in the city of Mumbai, Maharashtra. It is all the more officially alluded to as Hindi film. The expression "Bollywood" is frequently utilized by non-Indians as a synecdoche to allude to the entire of Indian film; be that as it may, Bollywood legitimate is just a piece of the bigger Indian film industry, which incorporates other creation communities delivering films in numerous other Indian dialects.

  • Bollywood Boycott Dulls Indian Screens
    Bollywood boycott dulls Indian screens MUMBAI, India (AP) — The dispute between Bollywood producers and Indian multiplexes over revenue sharing hardened this week, with no end in sight to the monthlong boycott of new releases. Indian movie fans — who spend an estimated 63 billion rupees ($1.27 billion) each year at theaters — were again presented with a tepid array of aging Hollywood blockbusters and regional films Friday, the night usually reserved for new releases. Richa Bose, a 23-year-old software engineer, stood out front of Inox cinema in south Mumbai, looking unhappily at his ticket for "Fast and Furious 4." "We don't want to see it, but we don't have a choice," he said. The stand off, which began April 4, has so far delayed the release of at least 6 major Bollywood films and two Hollywood movies, Angels & Demons and X-Men Origins, producers say. Analysts estimate the boycott has already cost multiplexes 300 million rupees ($6 million). Talks between producers, who want a larger share of box office revenues, and multiplex owners collapsed Monday, prompting Mumbai's largest movie studios to vow to release new movies at single screen and non-chain theaters, beginning at the end of this month. Multiplex owners shot back Thursday with a plan to jointly acquire distribution rights to a film to screen on their own. Movie producers complain that India's seven national multiplex chains, which account for half of ticket sales by revenue, have acted as a "cartel," negotiating revenue sharing agreements on a per- film basis which puts individual producers at a disadvantage.
