The trailer of the film festival circuit's favourite film, Beyond The Clouds, was unveiled on Monday. Directed by Iranian auteur Majid Majidi, the film stars Shahid Kapoor's brother Ishaan Khatter and actor Malavika Mohanan in key roles.
Ishaan and Malavika play the sibling duo Amir and Tara. Amir, who dreams of making it big in the big bad world, chooses a wrong path to achieve his dreams. But little does he know that his sister will pay the price. When running away from the cops, Amir's sister lands up in jail in a bid to protect her. Their lives go for a toss as Amir tries and makes sense of the situation he's gotten them both into.
Both Ishaan and Malvika deliver a rock solid performance in the 2-minute-long trailer and leave you longing for more. Their performances have already impressed the festival and now Majidi's film is set for a theatrical release on March 23.
In an earlier interview with IANS, Majidi also shed light on the element of human emotions in his works. "I always try to focus on that in my film. Cinema is completely different from a newspaper, magazine and other forms of media. In one film, we might just talk about a particular social or political issue but the next day, (when the issue is resolved) people could completely forget about it. But the value human life under a situation should be in focus that lasts longer as a story," he said.
Meanwhile, Ishaan is currently working to make his bid budget Bollywood debut alongside Sridevi's daughter Jahnvi Kapoor in Shashank Khaitan's Dhadak.
