Eklavya ready to take a bow

  • IndiaGlitz, [Saturday,December 09 2006]

Sanjay Dutt and Arshad Warsi’s ode to ‘Gandhigiri’ ‘Lage Raho Munnabhai’ is celebrating 100 days while another prospective blockbuster from Vinod Chopra stable ‘Eklavya-The Royal Guard’ is gearing up for a release. Starring Amitabh Bachchan, Saif Ali Khan, Vidya Balan, Jackie Shroff, Boman Irani, Jimmy Sheirgill, Raima Sen and Sharmila Tagore, ‘Eklavya’ is a contemporary dramatic thriller.

It’s about Eklavya, loyal guardian of a royal dynasty whose duty is to protect the erstwhile royal family in Devigarh, Rajasthan. What follows is a story of deceit, revenge, drama and action. Set in the present day India, the film has a special resonance for today’s world, beleaguered by the hate and violence born from fanatic belief. ‘Eklavya’ promises to give its audience a visual treat while showcasing unseen locations.

‘Eklavya’ finds Vidhu Vinod Chopra ensconcing himself in the director’s chair after a gap of five years (His last release was ‘Mission Kashmir’). The man has established himself as a colossal production house. Let’s see if he can recreate the magic of a ‘Parinda’ on celluloid. Once again.
