Bollywood star Manoj Bajpayee is set to lead an upcoming Indo-American social drama, directed by Ben Rekhi, an American filmmaker known for Aashram (2018) and Watch List (2019). The film is produced by Rana Daggubati, a major name in Telugu cinema, who is making his Bollywood production debut with this project.
A Powerful Story with a Social Message
The film’s plot centers around a common man fighting for a greater cause due to his family’s struggles. The narrative highlights pressing social issues through a deeply emotional family journey. Bajpayee, known for portraying complex and relatable characters, was immediately drawn to the project. When Daggubati and Rekhi pitched the story, Bajpayee reportedly agreed without hesitation, finding the role perfectly aligned with his artistic sensibilities.
The drama was shot in Mumbai last year, with several theatre artists also part of the cast. According to reports, the story’s realism and emotional depth are expected to strike a chord with audiences.
Rana Daggubati’s Bollywood Production Debut
While Daggubati is already a celebrated figure in South Indian cinema, this marks his first venture into Bollywood production. The film is produced under his banner, Spirit Media, in collaboration with a Los Angeles-based production house. Daggubati’s involvement brings an interesting blend of South Indian and Bollywood cinematic flavors, adding more intrigue to the project.
The Collaboration: A Match Made in Cinema
This film marks the first collaboration between Bajpayee and Daggubati, creating excitement among fans. The combination of Bajpayee’s acting prowess, Daggubati’s production expertise, and Rekhi’s international storytelling style is expected to deliver a hard-hitting, emotionally rich film.
What’s Next?
Currently in the pre-production phase, the film’s title, full cast, and release date are yet to be revealed. With Bajpayee’s recent completion of The Family Man 3 and Rekhi’s meticulous direction style, anticipation is building. More updates about the project are expected in the coming months.
