After NH10 (2015) and Phillauri (2017), Anushka Sharman’s next home production is a co-production with KriArj Entertainment titled Pari.
Anushka Sharma said, “At Clean Slate Films, we focus on a good, engaging story above all else. With new talent, we get to work on newer ideas and innovative concepts. Pari is a great script, and I have complete faith in Prosit’s vision as well as this collaboration with KriArj Entertainment.”
Like Phillauri, a first-time director, Prosit Roy, will helm the project. Roy has previously assisted Rakeysh Omprakash Mehra on Delhi-6 (2008) and Kannan Iyer on Ek Thi Daayan (2013). Sharma will star in Pari opposite Bengali actor Parambrata Chatterjee. He was introduced to Hindi cinema with Sujoy Ghosh’s Kahaani (2012) opposite Vidya Balan.
Chatterjee, who has also acted in Gang of Ghosts (2014), and Traffic (2016), said, “I was impressed with the script and team of Pari, and loved the idea of working with Anushka Sharma. This film holds great promise and I look forward to its shoot soon."
Co-produced by Clean Slate Films and KriArj Entertainment along with Kyta Productions, Pari is slated to begin shooting this June.
