Danny Boyle is intoxicated! With the success of his film Slumdog Millionaire, he is finding it hard to let go of Mumbai. He has proclaimed about his love for the city earlier too, but now he is helping with all that he can to help two Indian filmmakers complete their dream projects about this city of dreams!
Shekar Kapur’s Paani and Anurag Kashyap’s unnamed project, both are getting produced by Danny Boyle. Danny has earlier helped Anurag Kashyap with Dev D’s shoot in London; in fact he even helped Anurag buy a camera for the shoot.
Kapur’s long pending project Paani has finally set to roll. The film was stuck due to financial constraints and when Shekhar discussed the subject in detail, Danny could not resist the desire to produce the film.
No points for guessing the subject of the films. While Shekhar Kapur’s Paani is a futuristic film about the scarcity of water in Mumbai, Anurag Kashyap does not want to divulge the theme of his movie as yet. Danny in the meanwhile is busy playing messiah to both; the two movies were stuck due to financial constraints.
Apart from these two, the Oscar-winner filmmaker is also turning another novel into a film. This time it is the critically acclaimed– Maximum City: Bombay Lost and Found by Suketu Mehta. Danny has already bought the rights of the book and this travelogue cum autobiography which delves into the interconnected worlds of Mumbai’s slum-dwellers, dancing girls, underworld dons and Hindu radicals. This could be another biggie by Boyle. Click Here To Read More
