Blockbuster film, “The Kashmir Files” director Vivek Agnihotri has yet again made headlines for what is going to be his next project for the big screens. In a stunning revelation, that has sent ripples through the entire showbiz industry, Agnihotri announced his upcoming project which very well might be his next cinematic masterpiece, “PARVA”.
Taking to micro blogging site ‘X’, Vivek said that he is grateful for getting a chance to be presenting Padma Bhushan awardee, Dr. SL Bhyrappa’s modern classic which is known by the same name. Vivek raises the question whether Mahabharat is History or Mythology and says that the answer can be found in this book which contains Dr. Bhyrappa’s 17 yearlong extensive research. The book has been translated in many languages some of which are English, Russian and Mandarin. Vivek’s track record speaks volumes about his ability to craft masterpieces with his previous works having garnered critical acclaim and getting the love of a wide range of audiences. His films consist of long still shots and bring out raw human emotions, something we’ll be looking forward to in Parva.
‘Parva: An epic tale of Dharma’ is scheduled to be a 3-part movie which is expected to perform big on the box office already. It might very well exceed the impeccable success that Kashmir Files was as the movie’s plot is by no means going to be weak and the trusted hands of Agnihotri know what to do next. The book originally narrates the story of the Hindu epic Mahabharata mostly using monologue as a literary technique. Several principal characters found in the original Mahabharata reminisce almost their entire lives. Both the setting and the context for the reminiscence is the onset of the Kurukshetra War.
