Filmmaker Ram Gopal Varma has announced a new film project, co-produced by him and directed by Mohit Suri. Varma is set to write the screenplay for this yet-untitled movie.
The film's narrative is grounded in the historical split between underworld figures Dawood Ibrahim and Chhota Rajan. It will explore the circumstances that led to their fallout, specifically mentioning a figure named Sautya.
Furthermore, the story is slated to investigate the significant role played by Indian intelligence agencies in the events that transpired after the split. This includes their involvement in key developments following the 1993 serial blasts.
Varma expressed his confidence in Suri's direction, citing his ability to blend emotional characterizations with realistic action and impactful music. He compared the potential scale and emotional depth to Hollywood classics, aiming for a film larger than 'Dhurandhar' and more 'rooted' than 'Satya'. The makers are yet to announce the cast for this crime drama.
The collaboration merges Varma's expertise in crime cinema with Suri's skill in emotionally driven storytelling. The project's focus on both organized crime and intelligence operations, set against a pivotal period in Mumbai's underworld history, has already sparked considerable interest.
