Abhay Deol’s arrival in the Hindi Film Industry has witnessed a prospect for new actors to work with new directors. Apart from that, Abhay’s work has been quite promising and he manages to come out with something different that the audience’s heart craves for. Abhay Deol’s latest film ‘Ek Challis Ki Last Local’ will showcase him in an interesting role yet again.
Abhay has a carved a niche for himself in the film industry by working with new directors and original concepts. Some his previous performances in films like ‘Socha Na Tha’, ‘Aahista Aahista’, ‘Honeymoon Travels Pvt. Ltd.’ have proved the same. This time again, Abhay is ready with his next venture ‘Manorama – 6 Feet Under’.
Debutante director Navdeep Singh has managed to rope in an ensemble cast of Abhay Deol, Gul Panag, Raima Sen, Sarika, Vinay Pathak and Kulbhushan Kharbanda for his film. The film is set in a small town of Rajasthan. The post production work for the film has begun and it will hit the theatres later this year.
The plot of ‘Manorama – 6 Feet Under’ revolves around the incidents that take place with an amateur and part time detective, in a small town of Rajasthan. The detective gets entangled in a maze of fraud, deception, murder and deceit. The film is a dark comedy; the plot highlights its conceptual richness by the characters that are part of this story.
The moviebuffs will witness Vinay Pathak (Bheja Fry and Khosla Ka Ghosla fame) in an interesting role of a corrupt cop. The audiences are bound to love his way of portraying the character with the added touch of sarcasm and humour.
Navdeep Singh is not a new face on the celluloid as he has earlier directed a number of award winning commercials for Lux, Maruti Alto, MTV, Parle Hide ‘n’ Seek and Garnier.
This one is going to be a yet another roller coaster ride for moviebuffs looking out for ‘different’ stuff to hit the theatres.
