Bollywood actress Yami Gautam is all set to share the screen space with veteran star Pankaj Kapur in a new project, titled ‘Lost’.
Directed by Aniruddha Roy Chowdhury, ‘Lost’ is being touted as “a hard-hitting investigative drama centered around media integrity,” as reported by ANI.
Yami will portray the role of a crime reporter in this project.
Sharing the news on Instagram, Yami wrote, “Here comes another hard-hitting and thrilling tale that’s more relevant than ever in today’s time, #Lost. Filming begins soon.”
‘Lost’ will also feature Rahul Khanna, Neil Bhoopalam, Pia Bajpiee, and Tushar Pandey.
Commenting on the project, Aniruddha Roy Chowdhury said, “Designed as an investigative drama, as its core the film explores themes like commitment, responsibility, holding hands, and making our world beautiful and compassionate. For me, any film I make must have a social context, and the stories are taken from the world around us”.
He also added, “‘Lost’ is an emotional thriller that represents a higher quest, a search for lost values of empathy and integrity.”
The film will be largely shot at real locations across the city of Kolkata and Purulia and will highlight the underbelly of an urban city which often goes unnoticed.
Ace composer Shantanu Moitra along with renowned lyricist Swanand Kirkire will capture the essence of the city and emotions of the narrative.
Produced by Zee Studios, Shareen Mantri Kedia, Kishor Arora, Sam Fernandes, and Indrani Mukherjee, the film is expected to go on the floors in July 2021.
