Vinod Bhanushali & Raaj Shaandilyaa comes together to produce films under the FAM COM universe
Mumbai: With Janhit Mein Jaari starring Nushrratt Bharuccha, producer Vinod Bhanushali and producer-director Raaj Shaandilyaa told a riveting story in the most light-hearted manner. To take ahead the family comedies genre, the producers have collaborated to create several films under the same genre under their banners Bhanushali Studios Limited and ThinkInk Picturez Ltd.
Janhit Mein Jaari received accolades for narrating important subjects in an entertaining way that made the makers decide to fill the void of family entertainers by taking ahead the fam-coms genre. Considering how an out-and-out family comedy has been missing on the big screen for a while, this partnership is an exciting proposition that promises to deliver wholesome family entertainment.
While details are under wraps, Bhanushali Studios Ltd. makers Vinod Bhanushali & Kamlesh Bhanushali and ThinkInk Picturez Ltd. makers Shaandilyaa & Vimal Lahoti will announce the slate of films made under this multi-film deal.
Confirming this development, Vinod said, “We have seen quite a few romantic comedies targeted at a young audience, but very rarely do we get to enjoy an entertainer with the entire family. We hope to bridge that gap, and with Raaj Shaandilyaa as my partner, I’m confident we can weave stories that will make families laugh, cry and dance together.”
Shaandilyaa added, “I enjoy comedies that have a story to tell, and Vinod Bhanushali supports that vision to the T. Together, we hope to bring audiences family-comedies that they will enjoy and remember.”
The makers will soon announce the second film from this fam-com universe that will go on floors in March 2023.
