Siddhant Chaturvedi
Hindi cinema hasn’t quite explored the genre of action creature films. Siddhant Chaturvedi’s next, an ambitious film by Netflix India, was to fill that gap. However, mid-day has now learnt that the project has been shelved. Sources revealed that budgeting became an issue for the film, which was to be helmed by debutant director Neha Sharma.
Tentatively titled Ramree, the two-hero movie was reportedly set in 1945 and to be produced by Ajay Devgn. A source said, “Work on the film had been going on for over a year. Given the subject and the period setting, it was an expensive project. For an OTT film, this would have set a benchmark in scale and imagination, but budget constraints caught up with it. Even though the platform heads were excited about the story, there was too much at stake financially. So, they decided to not move forward with it.”
