MEGA EXCLUSIVE: After Vikrant Massey’s White, Narcos cinematographer Juan Carlos Gil comes on board Ranveer Singh’s Pralay
Here's the latest update from the Bollywood world:
A source told Bollywood Hungama , “The team of Pralay is mounting the movie on a lavish scale and wants it to have a Hollywood-style visual treatment. Juan Carlos Gil fits the bill perfectly. He is equally excited to come on board, while the team is thrilled to have him shoot this ambitious zombie movie.”
Adding to this, Pralay is highly awaited not just because it’s a mega-budget zombie thriller but also because its Ranveer Singh’s immediate next after the all-time smash hit, Dhurandhar . It is directed by Jai Mehta and produced by Birla Studios and Hansal Mehta.
Meanwhile, Vikrant Massey’s White is a big-scale human political drama inspired by a real-life episode from the life of global spiritual leader Gurudev Sri Sri Ravi Shankar. The movie is based on the fascinating story of how the world’s longest internal conflict – the war in Colombia – was resolved without firing a single bullet, through ancient Indian philosophies and Gurudev’s intervention.
Notably, Vikrant Massey will be seen essaying the role of Gurudev Sri Sri Ravi Shankar. Major portions of the movie have been shot in South America with an international cast and crew.
As per the latest buzz, White is backed by Siddharth Anand of War , Pathaan and King fame, producer Mahaveer Jain, and PeaceCraft Pictures. The movie is directed by ace ad filmmaker Montoo Bassi. It will be rolled out in over 100 countries and in multiple languages, with the aim of reaching audiences across the globe.
In further updates, With two vastly different genres - a zombie actioner and a political drama - both Pralay and White are set to bring a distinct, global visual language to Indian cinema, thanks to Juan Carlos Gil.
