New Delhi, Aug 7 : Crime thriller "Gangs of
Wasseypur" ( GOW), based on real life story, wowed the audiences despite a
high dose of gore and violence. Now part part two of the movie is
releasing Wednesday and it is said to be taking violence and bloodshed
to a new level. The first part opened June 22 amid critical and commercial acclaim. Centered
around power, politics and rivalry among three families, the film
explores revenge through the socio-political dynamic in Wasseypur,
Jharkhand, also known for coal and scrap trade mafia. While GOW-1
spans the 1940s to the 1990s, GOW-2 will be the culminating factor that
will take the story forward from the 1990s till 2009. " Gangs of Wasseypur 2" is said to be a fitting conclusion to the vengeance story. Written
by Zeishan Quadri, who hails from Wasseypur, the film is co-produced by
Anurag Kashyap and Sunil Bohra. Powerful performers like Manoj
Bajpayee, Nawazuddin Siddiqui, Tigmanshu Dhulia, Richa Chadda and Huma
Qureshi form the cast of the movie. More than 90 percent of the film has been shot in Uttar Pradesh to bring the right mood and feel to the story. Both
the parts were screened at the 65th Cannes International Film Festival
and the just-concluded Osian film fest in the capital. © IANS |
