Grandfather Pramod Chakravorty produced "Love In Tokyo" and now Prateek Chakravorty revives the family banner with "From Sydney With Love". He hopes to bring the banner back in the reckoning by making sensible films rather following any trend
Pramod Chakravorty launched Pramod Films in 1962 and made films like "Ziddi", "Love In Tokyo", "Dream Girl" and "Naastik". He died in 2004 and the banner became inactive after that. Eight years later, Prateek is ready with "From Sydney With Love" that releases July 27. This year also marks 50 years of the banner.u00a0Prateek says "he wants to follow the principles of making sensible films".
"This is what I will do when it comes to reviving Pramod Films. It's not about the banner, it's all about the kind of film that a banner makes. Pramod Films made around 13 movies and out of them, nine or 10 were jubilee hits of their time. Also, I think we were the first persons to start the trend of shooting overseas with 'Love In Tokyo'," Prateek told IANS.u00a0
