Yash Raj Films And Shekhar Kapur To Make PAANI
Shekhar Kapur and Yash Raj Films have joined hands
to make Shekhar Kapur's ambitious project, PAANI.
Talking about this
association, Shekhar Kapur said, "I have been
preparing for this film for a long time, but always wanted an Indian partner
that has the same passion for the film as I do and in Adi I
have finally found that. It’s a huge production that demands futuristic sets
and large action pieces. With Yash Raj Films, I have found a perfect home
for PAANI".
The film is based in a
future world where wars over water have broken out. Water is now owned by
International Corporations who use thirst as a weapon of control. In one such
future city, a young love story breaks all the rules and in the ensuing war, water
flows back to its people. The film will have a strong Indian and Western star
cast, headed by a young leading actor from India and a young leading actress
from the west.
The
film, Produced by Aditya Chopra and Directed by Shekhar
Kapur, will be shot in India and overseas. Music is by A. R. Rahman. PAANI goes
on floor mid-2013.
