‘Filmistan’
The just released ‘Filmistan’, written and directed by Nitin Kakkar, features the story of an affable Bollywood buff and wanna-be-actor Sunny. While he’s working on a documentary with an American crew in remote areas in Rajasthan, a terrorist group kidnaps him, mistaking him for an American crew member. Sunny is taken across the border amidst guns and “pathani”-clad guards, who decide to keep him hostage until they locate their original target.
The house in which he is confined belongs to a Pakistani, whose trade stems from pirated Hindi films. Soon, the two realise that they share a human and cultural bond.
