People Pictures launched their maiden film titled 99 on September 1 at Shatranj Napoli, Versova. The film directed by Raj Nidimoru and Krishna DK top lines Kunal Khemu and Soha Ali Khan.
Other stars in the comedy film produced by Anupam Mittal and Aditya Shastri include Boman Irani, Cyrus Broacha, Simone Singh, Mahesh Manjrekar and Vinod Khanna.
99 is an original story inspired by real events. It is as much "what could have been" as it is "what really happened." In other words, it is historical fiction - fiction being the keyword."
99 is the story of two different men in two different cities, who are bound by a common feeling of always being stuck at '99'. They never seem to make it to a 'century'- figuratively speaking. It is a journey of two men who want to break away from the rut and 'strike it big'.
What follows is an unpredictable and hilarious ride through two cities with extremely likeable and very grounded characters, unbelievable circumstances, real twists of fate, small-time crooks, big-time conspiracies, fateful car crashes, ups of friendship, downs of love and a climax that will keep everybody on the edge of their seats."
Those that attended the launch bash included stars Kunal Khemu, Boman Irani, Soha Ali Khan, Cyrus Broacha, Simone Singh, directors Raj Nidimuro-Krishna DK and producers Anupam Mittal and Aditya Shastri besides a horde of celebs of the likes of Aanchal Kumar, Shabbir Ahluwalia, Suchitra Pillai, Varun Badola. |
