Kunal Kapoor starrer Veeram to be screened at the BRICS film festival

Kunal Kapoor starrer Veeram has been shot in three different languages - Hindi, English and Malayalam and has plans to further dub it in Tamil and Telugu. The film will be releasing pan India later this year end. Veeram is directed by Jayaraj Nair, six times National Award winning director.

 

The film will be screened as the opening night film at BRICS (Brazil, Russia, India, China and South Africa ) film festival to be held at Siri Fort, New Delhi from 2nd to 6th September 2016.


A spectacular, larger than life magnum opus period drama set in the 13th century Kerala, Veeram resuscitates the real life character made famous through folklore literature and songs. Sharing broad similarities with the rise and fall of Macbeth, the film spans the journey of Chandu (Kunal), a Kalaripayattu warrior who meets a tragic end as an outcome of betrayal.

 

Leading man Kunal Kapoor shares his director's fervour, "I'm very excited that we are premiering at the first BRICS Film Festival. We've put a lot of effort into making this film and I'm really looking forward to seeing how the audience  reacts to it."

 

Talking about his film opening the festival, director Jayaraj says, "I am happy and proud in presenting the first screening of my latest movie Veeram, an adaptation of Shakespeare's Macbeth especially in this quadricentennial of the great writer. The BRICS honour makes VEERAM proud of Shakespeare, Kalari, Kunal and the team members".
