Mumbai, June 24 (NationPress) Director Faruk Kabir is set to embark on his upcoming film project titled “Salakaar.” Portrayed as gritty, emotional, and deeply embedded in reality, this film aims to present a narrative that not only captivates but also resonates with viewers worldwide.
Through “Salakaar,” Kabir seeks to challenge norms and ignite discussions that go beyond geographical confines. He expressed, “Having experienced both the triumphs and challenges of storytelling, I realized after Khuda Haafiz 2 that I couldn't return without a truly impactful narrative. I’ve longed to share a story that not only entertains but also communicates with audiences in India and beyond.”
“Salakaar is that narrative. It's gritty, emotional, and strikingly close to reality. Now that we’ve completed it, I’m eager for the world to witness it.”
Reflecting on the hurdles faced during production, Faruk Kabir acknowledged the difficulties of maintaining one’s artistic vision amidst uncertainty. He remarked, “In today’s world, fully owning your work—staying true to your beliefs amid doubters—is challenging. Yet, for me, it runs in my veins.”
Recognized for directing the successful action-thriller series Khuda Haafiz, Kabir returns with “Salakaar” after a two-year hiatus. This powerful story is inspired by the life of a remarkable Indian spymaster who relied on steadfast resolve to protect national security.
The filmmaker recently shared the motion poster for his upcoming film on social media, which is set to stream on JioHotstar. Earlier, he also announced that Mouni Roy would be playing a significant role in the film.
