Emraan Hashmi to play real-life detective who solved child kidnapping cases for free

Emraan Hashmi to play real-life detective who solved child kidnapping cases for free

New Delhi: Bollywood actor Emraan Hashmi is all set to play the lead in the movie ‘Father’s Day’, based on the real-life detective Suryakant Bhande Patil who solves child kidnapping cases for free and has been doing so for many years.
 
The film is a thrilling story of child kidnapping set against the emotional backdrop of a father-son relationship, trade sources said on Monday.

The story for ‘Father’s Day’ will be adapted from the Gujarati book ‘Drishyam Adrishyam’ written by Gujarati author Praful Shah.

“Ad filmmaker Shantanu Bagchi will venture into Bollywood with this Emraan Hashmi starrer. On the other hand, the casting for two children who will play an integral role and others are currently underway,” the sources said.

Emraan Hashmi expressed his extreme pride and said it is an honour for him to play such an inspiring character from real life.

“It will have many elements wherein it will deeply move the audience and even change their perspective towards life,” Shantanu said.

“The dialogues and screenplay of ‘Father’s Day’ is expected to be written by Ritesh Shah who has previously worked in films like ‘Airlift’ and ‘Pink’. Produced by Emraan Hashmi, Priya Gupta and Kalpana Udyawar, the movie is expected to be shot across Maharashtra,” the sources said.

Co-producer Priya Gupta said, “Hindi cinema has rarely managed to tap into the subject of child safety and this one will be solely dedicated to the importance of it.”

On the other hand, she is also all praises for Suryakant who is even working with the team at the age of 55.

She mentioned that he is quite down to earth, warm but has those observational skills of a detective wherein he will scan a person and will know many details about the person in just one glance.

“‘Father’s Day’ will go on floor next year,” the sources added. (UNI)
