Producer
Vishal Nihalani's Mumbai Se Aaya Mera Dost has already
released the UK cinemas.
Directed
by Apoorva Lakhia, this film takes a hilarious look at the
effect of modernisation on one particular Indian village.
In
India, almost 60 percent of the population is living across
50,000 villages spread around the country.
Approximately
87,000 of these villages to date are without electricity despite
continuous efforts by the Indian Rural Department.
Mumbai Se Aaya Mera Dost takes place in one such village.
It brings to our attention the daily struggle faced by majority
of the village people due to lack of water and electricity.
Great
interest is shown with this film as the look and
setting veers towards the blockbuster movie, Lagaan,
India's Oscar nominated film last year.
Film
critics have predicted that the film could prove to be a turning
point in Abhishek Bachchan's career.
Now
screening at Cineworld Wolverhampton and releasing soon at UCI
Telford in Shropshire. |
