Madhur Bhandarkar’s India Lockdown goes on floors

The shooting of Madhur Bhandarkar’s India Lockdown has started in Mumbai. The pandemic-themed film stars Prateik Babbar, Sai Tamhankar, Shweta Basu Prasad, Prakash Belawadi, Aahana Kumra, Zarin Shihab and Ayeesha Aimen. 

Madhur is looking to explore the universal impact of the Covid-19 on different people through the film. The project is backed by Bhandarkar Entertainment and PJ Motion pictures.

In an earlier interview with Cinema Express, Madhur had shared his perspective on the coronavirus crisis. “I was saddened to see the plight of migrant workers across India. As filmmakers, we are all contributing to fight this unexpected crisis. The time has come for everyone to unite and put humanity first,” the director had said.

Prateik Babbar was last seen in Darbar, which also marked his Kollywood debut. Besides India Lockdown, he will also appear in Mumbai Saga and Bachchan Pandey. He is also a part of Ayan Mukerji’s Brahmastra.
