We have been hearing a lot about Chandan Arora’s new film Striker starring Siddharth. The film is ready for release and Studio 18 has got the rights. Here’s what we got to know about the film from someone who worked on it….
Striker, as the name suggests is about Siddharth who is a brillant carrom player. And so the title Striker! Its set in Malwani area, where carrom competition is quite a big deal. But the carrom and striker connection ends there. At the core, its a revenege drama involving his girlfreind, a close friend, mafia man and everyone getting involved in some drug deal going wrong. And if its a hindi film, the end is not difficult to guess.
This sounds bit disappointing because Chandan Arora has given us two beautiful & small films with big heart! Main Madhuri Dixit Banana Chahti Hoon and Main, Meri Patni Aur Woh! Looking at both the films, its easy to guess that the director is the same. But Striker sounds completely new & much different from his old school!
Also, in the larger scheme of things, the carrom playing part really doesnt matter. It holds no connection to the main story. And all this while we have been wondering if its like Chake De India for carrom!
Hopefully our source and we will be proved wrong! But that rarely happens!
On his blog diary, Anurag Kashyap has announced his new film titled That Girl In Yellow Boots (TGIYB)! Its written by him and his girlfriend Kalki Koechlin and is a thriller!
