We have previously made our readers aware that Yash Raj Films aka YRF had announced its streaming arm YRF Entertainment’s first-ever OTT project – a web series titled ‘The Railway Men’, which is based on the 1984 Bhopal Gas Tragedy and stars Kay Kay Menon, R Madhavan, Divyenndu, and Babil Khan in major roles. The show is currently under the post-production stage.
Thereafter, a few weeks back, YRF announced and kicked-off its second OTT show titled ‘Mandala Murders’, which was being described as an edge-of-the-seat, multi-season crime thriller series. The massively mounted show will feature Vaani Kapoor in the lead role and will be directed by Gopi Puthran (of ‘Mardaani 2’ fame).
And now, the eminent film production and distribution company has just revealed the details about YRF Entertainment’s third OTT project. It’s a made-for-OTT movie titled ‘Vijay 69’ and features veteran Indian actor Anupam Kher in the lead role.
‘Vijay 69’ is being touted as a fun-filled, slice-of-life movie which revolves around the story of a 69-year-old man (Anupam Kher), who decides to participate in a triathlon competition. The movie is being directed by Akshay Roy, who had previously directed another YRF rom-com film ‘Meri Pyaari Bindu’ starring Ayushmann Khurrana.
So far, whatever projects the streaming arm of YRF has announced sound intriguing and exciting. Besides ‘Mandala Murder’, ‘The Railway Men’, and now, ‘Vijay 69’, it was also previously reported that another web series project for YRF Entertainment will be created by acclaimed writer Jaideep Sahni (‘Chak De! India’ writer). The series was described as a heady relationship drama about love, ambition, and profession.
