Four talented filmmakers from Bollywood and south — Umesh Shukla, Sajid Samji, Sabbir Khan and Sashi Kiran Tikka — have been brought on board by Sony Pictures Entertainment (SPE) Films India Private Ltd.
Each of these directors have established a niche audience for themselves in their genre of expertise. All these films, backed by Sony, are to go on floors by the end of this year. The films are scheduled for a 2020 release.
The production house wants to dabble in different areas including comedy, family oriented slice of life films, hardcore action and biopics. With this move, the production house hopes that they would offer something new and exciting for the cinema-goers.
Sony is instrumental in backing big Hollywood projects like Men In Black: International, Spider-Man: Far From Home, Angry Birds 2, Once Upon a Time… In Hollywood and more.
