Produced by Susan B. Landau and Ross Katz, the film is about Vishnu, a restless young man, who rejects his father's faltering hair oil business and hits the road with a travelling cinema. Colourful and full of unforgettable characters, the film celebrates India's open road and the pure love of movies.
It also stars actor-director Satish Kaushik. The film is slated to release here next year.
Benegal's directorial debut 'English August' was hailed as a landmark in contemporary Indian cinema and had ignited a wave of independent Indian filmmakers. His second feature presentation 'Split Wide Open' premiered at the Venice International Film Festival.
