Mumbai, Feb 24 (NationPress) BAFTA-nominated actor Adarsh Gourav is making his return to the silver screen after an eight-year hiatus with the upcoming film “Superboys of Malegaon”. He expressed that it feels wonderful to have a theatrical release, emphasizing that the big screen possesses its own unique magic.
He stated: “It feels great to have a theatrical release after eight years. The big screen has a magic of its own, and I’m thrilled that ‘Superboys of Malegaon’ will bring me back to cinemas.”
In Superboys of Malegaon, he plays the lead role, portraying Nasir Shaikh, a real-life filmmaker from Malegaon known for creating parodies of Bollywood and Hollywood films. The film also features Vineet Kumar Singh, Shashank Arora, and other talented actors.
“Upon first hearing the narrative and discovering Nasir Shaikh’s journey, I was immediately captivated. The film industry in Malegaon has a distinct allure, driven solely by passion, and immersing myself in this world as Nasir has been one of the most thrilling experiences of my career.
“Superboys of Malegaon is not merely a film; it’s a tribute to cinema crafted with heart and humor. I eagerly await the audience's experience in theatres on February 28, 2025.”
He mentioned that between 2017 and the present, he has been fortunate to work on remarkable projects—including The White Tiger, Extrapolations, Kho Gaye Hum Kahan, and web series like Guns & Gulaabs and Leila.
“Despite all these projects finding their audience through OTT platforms or digital media, I genuinely appreciate the reach of these platforms. However, there is something truly special about witnessing a story unfold on the big screen, experiencing the audience's reactions together, and feeling that shared energy.”
Produced by Zoya Akhtar and Excel Entertainment, and directed by Reema Kagti, the film is set for a theatrical release on February 28.
