The
Team of Ekkees Toppon Ki Salaami pays an ode to R. K. Laxman's Common
Man Statue which has been installed at the Worli Sea Face.
The very well known Indian Cartoon, The Common Man has
represented the hopes, aspirations, troubles and perhaps even foibles of
the average Indian, through a daily comic strip since years together.
Ekkees Toppon Ki Salaami which is a story of a common man, the team wants to celebrate the spirit of a common man.
Anupam Kher who will be seen playing the role of the father
in the film felicitated the years old statue with a flower garland and
talks about the symbolism for the event at the common man's statue.
The team launched the first song of the film "Tod de Kataar" at the ceremony.
The entire team Anupam Kher, Abhinav Shukla, Ravindra
Gautam, Neha Dhupia, Divyendu Sharma, Aditi Sharma,Manu Rishi and Ram
Sampath were present for the event.
Anupam Kher, actor, "It was wonderful to release our song
at the statue of R.K.Laxmans creation of Common Man. The film is about
the extraordinary struggle & courage of an ordinary man.
Thematically Both blended very well."
Abhinav Shukla, producer, "Keeping in mind we have a strong
common men connect in the film, we deemed it only fit that the first
song goes out as a dedication to them. What better place to release it
hence, other than the epitomised common man statue!"
Ravindra Gautam, director, "Titled 'break the line, break
the queue' this fast-paced number is a complete ode to the man who needs
to break out of the line to do what is unimaginable off him and put an
end to his unexciting existence."
The film is set to release on 10th October.
