Imitiaz Ali is one of the most talented filmmakers in Bollywood and ‘pro’ when it comes to love-stories-with-a-twist, who has given us memorable flicks like ‘Jab We Met’, ‘Rockstar’, ‘Highway’ and ‘Socha Na Tha’.
After bringing a number of unconventional tales of love to the big-screen, Imitiaz is now going to try his hands at something that hasn’t yet been depicted on the big-screen with the kind of intensity the filmmaker is known for.
The eternal love story of Krishna and Radha.
On the occasion of Janmashtami – celebrated nationwide as Lord Krishna’s birthday, Reliance Entertainment and Ali’s Window Seat Films announced that they have started working on a project which is going to revolve around the adored, and much romanticized saga of love and devotion between the two.
We’ve all heard glorious things about the inseparable bond Radha and Krishna shared with each other. Several stories of our childhood revolved around their love-filled days of growing-up together – so we’re intrigued to find how this turns out on celluloid.
Speaking on the project, which is still ‘under research’, Imitiaz said:
“I have always been fascinated by the eternal love story of Radha and Krishna. In all of Indian folklore, I know of no other story, which is so intensely personal and yet has such an epic scale. It has been my dream to step into the world of Radha-Krishna.”
such a blessing to be back in panjab!!!!
Can’t wait to see a fresh depiction of the classic love-saga that has looked-upon by countless of their devotees worldwide.
We’re putting our faith in Imitiaz for bringing out its true essence as someone who’s been a ‘pro’ in the on-screen depiction of ‘love’.
