Gulzar back with his films

Gulzar who is forty-seven years ago veteran lyricist and poet had penned his first script but he had shelved it. Sanjay Gupta, who was busy preparing Gulzar’s biography, stumbled upon it and wanted to make the movie. Sanjay is assumed to direct the film under his banner, White Feather Films. The film is expected to be made on a budget of over Rs 100 crore.
When contacted, Sanjay Gupta confirmed the news and said that he was busy preparing Gulzar’s biography when he happened to mention this script to him. He read the two-line story description of the film and was really excited! It was brilliant, of course. He rang him up immediately, woke him up from his sleep, and told him that they are definitely making this film! Gupta further said that this would be the biggest film of her life, he told him. He is all charged up about making the film, and is surprised that Gulzar didn’t make the film earlier. He doesn’t want to reveal anything about the film, as the pre-production will take a long time. All he could say was that it is a period film about the partition. Titled Pathan, it is based on the Northwest frontier province. He is currently in Hyderabad working on his film Acid Factory, after which he will complete Alibaug, and then begin working on Pathan.
The pre-production work, though, has already begun.
