MEHBOOBA: First Look
Afzal Khan’s Magnum Opus ‘MEHBOOBA’ set to release on 11th July. Afzal Khan, producer of ‘Hum Kisise Kum Nahin,’ starring Amitabh Bachchan, Sanjay Dutt, Ajay Devgan and Aishwarya Rai, is back with another multi-starrer, this time an emotional love story produced and directed by him, titled ‘Mehbooba’. The film stars Sanjay Dutt, Ajay Devgan and Manisha Koirala in the lead roles. The film is all set to release nationwide on 11th July, 2008.
Set on a huge canvas and shot across three continents, America, Europe and Asia, with four different countries as the story’s backdrop, with New York, Budapest, Austria, Bikaner, Jaisalmer and Mumbai as the key locations, the film boasts of lavish settings and locales, expensive sets under the supervision of production designer Nitin Chandrakant Desai, eye-catching cinematography with lensing by ace DOP Ashok Mehta, and some breath- taking action with Bhiku Verma as the stunt co-ordinator.
The music has been composed by Ismail Darbar who returns with a truly memorable score in the vein of his earlier works Hum Dil De Chuke Sanam and Devdas.
Khan has toiled four years to mount this magnum opus, leaving no stone unturned in bringing his vision to the silver screen, and the promos are testimony to the effort and creativity spent in directing this labour of love.
