Siddharth Roy Kapur launches own production house, to produce three biopics!
Siddharth Roy Kapur has launched his own production house Siddharth Roy Kapur Films under which, the producer will make three biopics, one starring Aamir Khan
Siddharth Roy Kapur, former CEO of UTV Motion Pictures, has launched his own production house named Roy Kapur Films, with as many as three big projects already in the pipeline! Aamir Khan has signed up to portray astronaut Rakesh Sharma on the silver screen, which will be produced by Roy Kapur Films under Siddharth Roy Kapur. After the massive success of ‘Dangal’, there are high expectations from Aamir’s next biographical onscreen performance. Aamir’s astronaut film will go on the floors in early 2018. Roy Kapur Films’ second movie is yet another biopic based on Vijendra Singh (not to be confused with boxer Vijender Singh), a man who had lost his wife Leela in the Uttarakhand floods. He found her after 19-month long search across 1,000 villages. Filmmaker Siddharth Roy Kapur was touched by the story and hence decided to buy the rights of the tale. This drama of hope is yet to get a team in place though.
For his third project, Siddharth has roped in ‘Dangal’ director Nitesh Tiwari under his Roy Kapur Films production house. The film will be based on Varun Agarwal, who co-founded successful start-up Alma Mater (school and college merchandise) and wrote a book titled ‘How I Braved Anu Aunty & Co-Founded A Million Dollar Company’, which will make the base for the movie. With three powerful real life stories already in his kitty, Siddharth Roy Kapur is set to start sailing for his production house Siddharth Roy Kapur Films.
