Manoj Bajpayee, Devashish Makhija collaborating for third time for 'Joram'
After their short Tandav, and feature film Bhonsle, actor Manoj Bajpayee and director Devashish Makhija are teaming up for a third project. Titled Joram, the film will be set in Jharkhand and Mumbai. Zee Studios is banking the project along with Makhijafilm, which is run by Anupama Bose and Makhija. The project will hit the floors by the end of next month.
Why does this story matter?
Bajpayee and Makhija's collaboration has always been fruitful. Their first project together, Tandav, is about a constable who has nothing going for him, while their second venture, Bhonsle is centered around a terminally ill constable. Bajpayee had bagged a National Award under Best Actor category for his role in Bhonsle. So, this reunion is an exciting one and all for the right reasons.
