Himesh Reshammiya’s film to be launched at Berlin Film Festival

MUMBAI: It was only recently that Himesh Reshammiya performed at the Wembley in London and had an auditorium of 17,000 people swaying to his tunes. It was at this very concert that he also announced his foray into acting with his debut film Aap Ka Suroor - The movie - The Real Love Story.

The latest on that front is that on 13 February, the film will be announced at the Berlin Film Festival. Confirming the development to Businessofcinema.com, Reshammiya says, “Yes, the Film Commission of Germany will announce my film at the Berlin Film Festival.”

Prashant Chadda director of the film adds, “It is the first time that a Bollywood movie is being shot in Germany on such a grand scale. Approximately 40 per cent of our film will be shot in Germany. Prior to this Bollywood films have been shot in Germany merely for song sequences.”

Reshammiya will be accompanied by Chadda and producer Vijay Taneja for the Berlin Film Festival.

Talking about his film Reshammiya says, “The film will have a continuous schedule from mid February onwards in Germany, Spain, Italy and many more locations. The film will be ready for release on 6 July 2007.”

He further adds, “It is a very unconventional film that will follow commercial parameters of Bollywood cinema. As the title The Real Love Story suggests, the romance angle in the film will be real, but the remaining part is fictional. The film is a musical thriller.”

Gary Powell of Casino Royale was recently signed as the action choreographer for Reshammiya’s film to work on three action sequences that are integrated in the film.
