Netflix used the second night of its See What’s Next: Asia content gathering in Singapore to unveil eight new original films for its India market, including a regional release for Bleecker Street and ShivHans Pictures’ long-gestating Hotel Mumbai, which the streaming giant has rights to in the South and Southeast Asian territories.
The film, directed by Anthony Maras and starring Dev Patel, Armie Hammer, Nazanin Boniadi, Anupam Kher and Jason Isaacs, had been in limbo as part of The Weinstein Company bankruptcy. A 2019 U.S. release date is likely for the movie, which depicts the events of the 2008 terrorist attacks on the iconic Taj Mahal Palace Hotel.
Other films in the works include Firebrand, a Marathi Film directed by Aurna Raje and produced by Priyanka Chopra that follows a successful lawyer (Usha Jadhav), a sexual assault victim, as she tackles difficult family cases while also dealing with intimacy issues in her own marriage.

There is something about Ram Gopal Varma’s tireless spirit that gets to you. His new Hindi film, his first in three years, is a frenetic frenzied near-hysterical take on the brutal life of the jungle outlaw Veerappan who, apparently, could kill with an impunity that made mass murder a political issue.
To his credit Rgv has done his homework well. There is enough evidence here to convince us that Veerappan was a dangerous psychotic socio-political outcast who deserved to get the death that he finally did. The dark brooding earthy atmosphere created in the film adds to the feeling of dread.
This is no country for the sensitive. And if you are the kind who visits the cinema for emotional release Veerappan is not your thing.

We all know that the maverick filmmaker Ram Gopal Varma is now all set to release Veerappan, which happens to be is the Hindi version of his Kannada film Killing Veerappan. While making the film, Ram Gopal Varma did extensive research on the dreaded Veerappan, who operated from Bandipur forest.
The cops who were instrumental in Veerappan's encounter, apparently helped Ram Gopal Varma with some of the information. That's why Ram Gopal Varma has now decided to show them the movie first, prior to its release in theatres.
Veerappan stars Sandeep Bhardwaj in the title role, along with Usha Jadhav, Lisa Ray and Sachiin Joshi (who also happens to be the film's producer). The film is slated to release on May 27.

Lisa Ray who will be seen in a never-before avatar in Ram Gopal Varma's Veerappan suffered a leg injury during the shooting of the film. Not that it dampened her adventurous spirit. This is the first time she is working with the prolific director and is understandably excited. Says Lisa, "I've been a fan of Rgv's work for a long time. When he narrated the story of Veerappan and explained my role, there was no doubt at all about doing the film. And working with Rgv was a dream-come-true, and unique. He was so clear about each and every scene and shot that I could relax into the role." I trusted him completely and that's very important for an actor. I also loved working with Usha Jadhav- her talent and story is so inspiring- and Sachiin who was a big support on the set- especially when I broke my toe.
