MUMBAI: Madhur Bhandarkar’s last release was two years back. Indu Sarkar, his last film did not quite create the impact that it was meant to, however, now the director is all set to start a fresh project.

Madhur is known for his hard-hitting films like Corporate, Page 3, Fashion and more and now he’ll be making yet another film based on true events. He mostly makes films that are women-centric but this time around the director has planned to turn the tables.

Madhur will be working with an A-list actor on the project and the film is going to revolve around the sand mafias of Uttar Pradesh. It has been confirmed that the film will mostly be shot in UP to add a necessary authentic touch in the mood board of the film.

The film is expected to go on floors this May and it has also been reported by a leading daily that Madhur has been researching on this topic for quite some time now. The director himself confirmed the news by saying, “Yes I am making this film, but it is too early to divulge more details at this point.”
