"The novel is based on some real incidents and I want to captivate the viewers with each moment that something as unbelievable happened to someone.

"Truth has never been so much stranger than fiction. The scale of the movie demands to be felt within the confines of a theatre and we are excited to bring this magnum opus to audiences around the world," the director said. -- PTI
