Ajay Kapoor is very well known in the Bollywood industry. Some of his films include Parmanu, Bazaar, Romeo Akbar Walter, Baby, among others.
Talking about ‘Garud’, Rotem Shamir said, “Garud is a very exciting film. While it is focused on the Indian aspect of the story, it has a universal appeal that promises to connect with people all across. I have been fascinated with the content from the Indian entertainment industry for a long time. Hence, when Ajay Kapoor brought this film to me, I knew I had to take it. I am especially looking forward to working with Ajay Kapoor, who has been associated with so many varied films. I am also really excited for a long term association with Ajay Kapoor.”
Ajay Kapoor says that this film will be big budget and very special. He also says that Rotem’s experience from ‘Hostages’ is very helpful as he is capable of understanding the vision and emotional quotient of delicate films like ‘Garud’.
