Orion Pictures to produce 6 films in 2008

Mukesh Talreja and Nikhil Advani, Directors of Orion Pictures Private Limited today announced a slate of 6 films to be produced by them in the next 12 months. The company is all geared up on the production of these six films, two out of which are already under production.

Orion Pictures was formed in 2005 with Mukesh Talreja and Nikhil Advani at the helm of all company activities. 'Salaam E Ishq' was the first film under the banner while others include the Akshay Kumar starrer 'Chandni Chowk to China', 'Ab Dilli Door Nahin' and the line up of the four new films which are going on floors in the near future.

While the prestigious 'Chandni Chowk to China' presented by Warner Brothers and their big animation project 'Ab Dilli Door Nahi' are already on the floors, Orion Pictures has now commissioned four more projects that are slated to go on floors in the next few months. The third film from the Orion bouquet of films to hit the floors in April/May 2008 would be Milap Milan Zaveri's 'Jaane Kahan se Aayi hai!' This film would mark Milap Milan Zaveri's debut as a director after a number of successful films as a writer, such as 'Heyy Babyy', 'Masti', 'Jhankaar Beats' and 'Kaante'.

Milap Zaveri says on the venture, 'There are a lot of love stories between the rich and poor, caste and creed but nothing that is out of the world. So I came up with a twist to the popular concept of 'Men are from Mars and Women are from Venus'. I kept the man from Earth and the Woman from Venus'.

Ritesh Deshmukh plays the guy from planet Earth while Ayesha Takia is the girl from Venus. Weaved around the concept of an alien searching for love from an earthling, the story is written with a lot of good humor and emotions that the young generation of today can connect with. The film also stars a promising new comer, Ruslaan Mumtaz.

Said Mukesh Talreja, 'At Orion we are looking at working with a host of fresh talent including new directors. There is a huge untapped talent in the country. And we believe that a successful writer like Milap will prove to be a very talented film maker with a bright future'.

The other three films form an interesting package which we intend to make public soon and shall go on floors in the next few months. This would include a film to be directed by Nikhil Advani, Vikramiditya Motwane, and Shivam Nair. The details of which will be announced at a later date.

Nikhil Advani emphasizes, 'Entertainment is what we intend to focus at Orion. We intend to make quality films with new talent as well as the existing talent. Our emphasis will be on making films of all genres which will satiate the palette of all kinds of audiences.
