New Delhi, Actor Rana Daggubati’s Spirit Media will bring “Last Man in Tower”, an adaptation of Aravind Adiga’s bestselling novel, to Indian theatres on September 11.
Directed by Ben Rekhi, the movie is headlined by actor Manoj Bajpayee along with Boman Irani and Divya Dutta. The film explores community, family, compromise and the choices people make when an opportunity to change their lives comes their way. “The most rewarding part has been witnessing the power of Manoj and Boman – two giants of cinema – working together for the first time in this film. Besides Daggubati, the film is produced by Rekhi, Guneet Dogra and Pratiksha Rao.
Rekhi said bringing the film to life was a fulfilling experience, particularly the opportunity to see Bajpayee and Irani share the screen for the first time. Divya brings an incredible depth and emotional strength to the ensemble,” he said. Daggubati, who produced the film and founded Spirit Media, said the story’s appeal lay in the way it found universal questions in the lives of a specific group of people. The crew also includes Juhi Chaturvedi, the acclaimed screenwriter of “Piku” and “October” who has penned the dialogues, and composer Govind Vasantha, the man who gave music to films such as “96” and “Meiyazhagan”.
