Bollywood producer Prakash Jha has joined hands with UTV Motion Pictures to co-produce his upcoming directorial venture ‘Rajneeti’.
The producer has also signed up a distribution deal with UTV for 'Rajneeti', which is scheduled to hit theatres during the first half of the coming year (2010).
UTV will distribute the movie all through the world.
Jha said, “With Bhopal as its backdrop and 5,000 trained actors from all over Madhya Pradesh working on the films landscape, Rajneeti is truly my most exciting and ambitious venture.”
Actor Nandita Das’s directorial debut Firaaq, which deals with the impact of violence on human psyche and relationships, is ready for release on March 20.
The film has bagged acclaim and awards in international film festivals.
The critically acclaimed actress, who already proved her guts with exceptional performances in ‘Fire, ‘Earth’ and ‘Bawandar’, said that she is not ambitious in any way.
No new movies will be released across India after April 3, as the film makers could not settle their disputes with multiplex owners over sharing of box-office revenues.
The rift has come after multiplex owners did not agree to their conditions of 50:50 equality in profits sharing for each movie to distributor and exhibitors, be it a small budget or a big budget film - independent of the star cast.
