Vikrant Massey’s recent film, 12th Fail, directed by Vidhu Vinod Chopra, has achieved both critical acclaim and commercial success. Riding on the triumph of the film, Massey has now teamed up with producer Ekta R. Kapoor for an upcoming project.
The actor is set to headline Ekta Kapoor’s untitled political thriller, directed by Ranjan Chandel, known for helming the popular digital series Grahan. The film explores a shocking true story from the early 2000s that had a profound impact on the nation, reshaping the political landscape in India.
According to a report, Ekta Kapoor is enthusiastic about bringing this impactful story to the big screen. Despite numerous debates on the episode over the years, no one has dared to make a film on this subject. Ekta, known for taking risks, has decided to back this narrative and present it to the audience. Described as hard-hitting, the story offers ample scope for powerful performances. Vikrant Massey, Ekta Kapoor, and Ranjan have extensively discussed the project over the last few months and are gearing up to start filming in the coming months.
Produced by Shobha Kapoor, Ekta Kapoor, Amul V. Mohan, and Anshul Mohan, the film’s script is written by Aseem Arora. The makers plan to make an official announcement soon, and director Ranjan has already commenced pre-production work, with acting workshops scheduled to begin shortly.
