Prakash Jha is coming up with his next titled “Satsang“, which will revolve around the subject of religion. Prakash is very well-known for his Blockbuster hit films like “Gangaajal”, “Raajneeti” and “Apaharan”. Prakash’s last movie project was “Jai Gangaajal” starring Priyanka Chopra.
About his upcoming movie Prakash said, “I am making a film titled ‘Satsang’. It is about religion… I am gearing for it, writing, setting it up. It’ll take a little more time. It will go on floor next year. I can’t talk anything more about it.” He added, “I primarily make a film to entertain and I try to engage the audience with a compelling story. If the backdrop is realistic, it’s fun. I find stories rooted in reality exciting.”
Prakash is aware that setting a film against a realistic backdrop often leads to controversies. He said, “It is difficult to make a film without offending anyone. You can’t name a party, an ideology, you can’t do anything. Somehow I negotiate and make films, despite that there are fights. We try to say what we want but we have to also keep in mind the limitations of the society.”
Prakash says that it is very difficult to make films in today’s time, “Cinema is a process and a part of our social thoughts. Just like books, poetry, songs, and speeches, cinema also holds the power to change a few things. The process must go on, whether a cinema makes a difference or not is another thing… At least, it keeps the cauldron boiling which is necessary.”
