Vidhu Vinod Chopra brings it on Jaman with “Eklavya, The Royal Guard.”
Our Cannes festivities included hanging with Acclaimed director of Eklavya, Vidhu Vinod Chopra (VVC) and a gang of red-carpet ready folks on the beach front. That’s VVC himself third from the left and some of the Jaman crew, including our Big Man In Charge, Gaurav Dhillon. (Third from the right)
Yes, we’re beaming because we’re drinking champagne in Cannes, but also because we get to bring Eklavya, the Royal Guard, to the world. Now playing on Jaman, Eklavya was India’s submisison to the Oscars in 2008 and stars some of India’s best actors, including Amitabh Bachchan, Saif Ali Khan, Sanjay Dutt, Vidya Balan and more. Variety International called Eklavya a “Shakespearean Tragedy”. The Times, UK says it’s a “Bollywood Epic”.
