the backdrop for a horror story. Talking about the film, NP Singh, the COO of Multi Screen Media Pvt. Ltd. says, "We
have teamed up with Contiloe Entertainment for the first time and we
are quite glad about this partnership as Contiloe has been a leading TV
production house for horror shows over the years. The horror genre has
made something of a comeback in recent times and Darr At The Mall is the
kind of film, which belongs to the new age wave because of its
narrative and technology, which matches upto international standards.
Pawan Kripalani proved his mettle as a director with ‘Ragini MMS’ while
Jimmy Shergill is a talented actor apart from which, the film also has a
lot of fresh talent and we could not have asked for a better team of
people for making this film.”
Talking about the
film, director Pawan Kripalani (who made his directorial debut with the
highly successful ‘Ragini MMS’) says, “Malls are very accessible and
public places, which are usually full of people having a great time.
However, the same mall can be an eerie place at nights when all the
shops are closed and the lights are switched off. This is what we have
captured in the film.”
Jimmy
Shergill, who plays the protagonist, a mall security personnel in the
film, says, “I usually enjoy watching horror flicks or films with any
kind of thriller element and when this script came to me, I was so
engrossed in it because of the detailing that I simply could not turn it
down. This is the kind of film that has never been attempted before in
Bollywood.”
MSM Motion
Pictures and Contiloe Entertainment’s ‘Darr At The Mall’, which is
directed by Pawan Kripalani, is scheduled to release on February 21st
2014.
