·
Having come together for the highly anticipated
Marathi blockbuster ‘Baji’, ‘Poshter Boyz 2’ is a natural extension of the
rapidly growing relationship between DAR Motion Pictures (Lalbaug Parel, Teecha
Baap Tycha Baap, Ugly, Lunchbox, D-Day, Haunted 3D, etc) and Affluence Movies (Sanai Chaughade, Poshter Boyz)
Shreyas
and Deepti Talpade’s Affluence Movies Pvt. Ltd. today announced that it had
joined hands with DAR Motion Pictures, the producers of acclaimed films such as
Lalbaug Parel, Teecha Baap Tycha Baap, Ugly, Lunchbox,
D-Day, Haunted 3D, amongst others, to co-produce the sequel of its Superhit
Marathi Film ‘Poshter Boyz’ titled ‘Poshter Boyz 2’. The film will also mark
the directorial debut of Actor-Producer Shreyas Talpade and will feature the
original Poshter Boyz trio of Dilip Prabhavalkar, Hrishikesh Joshi and Aniket
Vishwasrao.
Commenting on the occasion Shreyas
Talpade said, “From the day we decided to produce ‘Poshter Boyz’, we knew it
would become a franchise. The overwhelming response the movie received on its
release only further validated this. ‘Poshter Boyz 2’ will not just push the
canvas of the franchise but also aims at doubling the entertainment quotient.
Furthermore, I have through my career in films always been fascinated with the
art of direction. ‘Poshter Boyz 2’ is the perfect platform for me to take the
plunge.
“Having worked with DAR Motion Pictures on
‘BAJI’, it was abundantly evident right from the word go that apart from a near
perfect match in our sensibilities when it came to film making but that they
would also be ideal partners for Poshter Boyz 2,” added Shreyas on Deepti and
his choice of partnering with DAR Motion Pictures for Poshter Boyz 2.
Poshter Boyz was a humorous take on a key social issue where
three ordinary individuals of completely different age-groups find themselves
brought together in an unwanted situation that has a serious negative effect on
their well-settled happily progressing life. It revolved around an incident of
three ordinary people who, to their surprise, found their pictures on a poster
promoting vasectomy and how that error changed their lives around. Laced with a
very interesting and well rounded music and background score, the film explored
the journey of these three men through those trying times and their fight for
justice.
Commenting on the association with
Affluence Movies Pvt Ltd, Vivek Rangachari, Producer DAR Motion Pictures said,
“We have always been very bullish about the Marathi film industry. Infact the
very first film we produced was Lalbaug Parel before moving on to produce a
whole host of Hindi films along with Teechaa Baap Tycha Baap and now the highly
anticipated Baji. We continue to remain very bullish about the industry and
hence when during the shoot of Baji Shreyas narrated the story he had in mind
for the sequel to Poshter Boyz we immediately confirmed our partnership in this
venture.’
Poshter Boyz 2 is slated for an early
2016 release.
