“Lucknow Central”, set against the backdrop of a jail
and its inmates, will release on September 15, 2017. Bringing alive the
vibe of the heartland, the Farhan Akhtar starrer narrates the quirky
and humorous journey of a small town man, whose circumstances lead to
him landing up in jail, a statement said. “We are extremely excited
about this project as it’s a very unique concept set against the
backdrop of a jail and its inmates. The stellar ensemble cast adds
further charm and intrigue to the film and we can’t wait to bring this
captivating drama to the viewers,” said Nikkhil Advani of Emmay
Entertainment, which is backing the movie with Viacom18 Motion Pictures.
“Lucknow Central” is currently under production. Farhan brings to life the simplicity, wit, ambition and resolve of the common man in the movie, which marks the directorial debut of Ranjit Tiwari and also features Diana Penty, Gippy Grewal, Deepak Dobriyal, Ronit Roy and Rajesh Sharma in pivotal roles. According to Mid-Day, Diana barely got 10 days to prepare for her part, says a unit hand, adding, “Before she started shooting, she went for elaborate workshops and reading sessions with Farhan and the cast members. She also met a few activists and interacted with women-led NGOs that work with prisoners.” When filmmaker Nikkhil Advani was asked why he chose Diana for the role, he said, “Diana is a talented and versatile actress and is known for her interesting choice of roles and films. She brings with her an element of quiet strength that lends itself well to the character we want her to portray.” To this, Diana added, “I’ve always wanted to be part of stories that I feel strongly about and Lucknow Central is one such story. I instantly took to it when Nikhil Advani told me about it. Playing a character that holds her own in a film that has some of the finest actors from our industry, makes it even more special for me.”
