‘KAUN BANEGA PRADHAN MANTRI’ GAME RELEASED

‘KAUN BANEGA PRADHAN MANTRI’ GAME RELEASED
FUN MIXED WITH A MESSAGE – “EVERY VOTE MATTERS”

Mumbai, May 2, 2019: Anil D. Ambani led Reliance Entertainment’s Zapak, India’s leading Gaming Destination, in association with Zhakaas Games, launches the ‘Kaun Banega Pradhan Mantri’ Mobile Game. The game is releasing at an interesting time when the entire country participates in the biggest event on the planet – the 2019 India Elections!

‘Kaun Banega Pradhan Mantri’ encapsulates the thrill of the current Indian political scenario and encompasses the ongoing General Elections 2019. Don’t just witness political campaigns on TV Screen, get into a journey where you literally ‘run’ your own campaign against other political parties. Let the Netas do all the hard work. Take the opportunity to make them run all around the city to gather as much support as they can muster.

“The Election Commission of India does its best to raise the awareness of voting amongst various communities and across demographics by running programs and campaigns to encourage voter turnout. We at Zapak, joined hands with Zhakaas Games, to increase the awareness about how ‘EVERY VOTE MATTERS’, in a style that we know best – making games” said, Amit Khanduja, CEO, Reliance Digital.

Aayush Agarwal, Founder, Zhakaas Games, said “Politics affects every individual at very basic levels, and is one of the most discussed topics across the country. Be it a bus or train journey, local food joints or lavish meeting rooms, people exhibit political enthusiasm in some form and are fans of political figures in our country. The game targets such individuals and clearly showcases how every vote can make a difference through its gameplay. We are excited to be partnering with Zapak, who are leaders in mobile and online gaming in India and understand the pulse of the Indian gamer.”

Becoming a Prime Minister is not easy!

Choose a leader from multiple political avatars in the game, run across the streets and around the city and rush into other people to convert them into your supporters. Each supporter clones the looks of the leader and starts following the leader on their trail. Players can see the number of supporters above the leader’s head.

Each player will come across other competing leaders with their followers backing them up. Avoid the larger parties as they can steal your supporters and take over your party and followers. You can instead take over other smaller parties and add their entire follower base to yours and make your campaign even stronger.

The leader with a maximum number of supporters at the end of a very intense 2 minutes will emerge as the winner. Remember, ‘Every Vote Matters’. You can lose even by the difference of one supporter in the game or be consumed by a leader who is just one follower stronger.

Awareness on the power of the vote and choosing the right leader for our country is the need of the hour. ‘Kaun Banega Pradhan Mantri’ is a moral initiative towards creating that awareness in society. It aims to evoke responsibility among the citizen of India and more importantly among the youth and the kids, who will shape the future of our country.

The game is free to play, available on the Google Play Store and coming soon to the Apple App Store.

Reliance Entertainment to Produce the Official Hindi Remake of DreamWorks Pictures’ Psychological Thriller The Girl On The Train!

Parineeti Chopra roped in for Emily Blunt’s role in the official Hindi remake of Paula Hawkins’ best seller The Girl On The Train!

Mumbai, April 24, 2019: Anil D. Ambani led Reliance Entertainment is all set to produce the official Hindi remake of Paula Hawkins’ 2015 runaway bestseller, The Girl On The Train. The book was also adapted into a Hollywood film by Steven Spielberg’s DreamWorks Pictures and received a warm reception at the US box office.
 
Emily Blunt received a nomination for her performance at the 23rd Screen Actors Guild Awards, as well as a nomination for BAFTA Award for Best Actress in a Leading Role, in the film. The author-backed role in the official Hindi remake will star Parineeti Chopra, who steps into the shoes of an alcoholic divorcée, who becomes involved in a missing person’s investigation.

The psychological thriller will be produced by Reliance Entertainment, who have procured the rights of the book and the film and will be adapting it from an Indian story telling perspective.
 
Confirms Shibasish Sarkar, Group CEO Reliance Entertainment, “Not only is The Girl On The Train, one of the best psychological thrillers but also a heartwarming story of the female protagonist and her discovery of life. We have procured the rights of the book and the film, and will be adapting it from an Indian story telling perspective. Amblin will be a partner in this film.”
 
“We are always pleased to work with our long-time partners at Reliance Entertainment to bring the best stories to audiences around the world. This Hindi-language adaptation of The Girl On The Train is a first for Amblin and a testament to Paula Hawkins’ incredible book and our 2016 film,” says Jeff Small, President and Co-CEO, Amblin Partners.  
 
The still to be titled, taut thriller will be directed by Ribhu Dasgupta, who will adapt the book keeping in mind the sensibilities and grit of the characters from the source.

ParineetiAs the film is all set to go on floors this year, National award laureate Parineeti Chopra can’t wait to start work on the film. She says, “I want to do roles that audiences haven’t seen me in before and one’s that require a lot of prep and homework, which is why The Girl On The Train really worked for me. The character is an alcoholic and a victim of abuse, and I haven’t explored anything like her onscreen before”. 
 
Talking about what made Parineeti the ideal choice for the protagonist in the film, says Ribhu, “The character is edgy, dark, and gritty along with being extremely emotional. So it is great to team up with someone like Parineeti, who is an extremely sincere actor and a powerful performer.”

The casting was a beautiful twist of destiny in a way for Parineeti Chopra who related to the character at the very start, “It’s exciting because I never thought I’d actually be doing a film around a book I’ve read and loved. I relate to the character because I’ve studied and worked in London, it’s my second home… I even know the tube maps inside out. I can’t wait to start shooting the film and relive those days and I hope people enjoy seeing me in a completely new avatar in this film.” she adds.

Though details remain unknown at this juncture, Shibasish reveals, “The film is expected to go on floors around July 2019 and we expect to finish shooting by September. The film is entirely set in UK and we are in the process of locking the location. We haven’t fixed a release date yet but it will be in 2020”.

Mumbai, April 15, 2019: Anil D. Ambani owned Reliance Entertainment’s Big Synergy have teamed up with three exciting film makers to create a mega entertaining web series Paan Parda Zarda.

After garnering accolades for their films and web series, the trio has come together with Reliance Entertainment’s Big Synergy to create Paan Parda Zarda – an intoxicating love story set amidst the opium trade barons of Central India… from the arid landscapes of the Maalwa plateau to the princely kingdom of Bhopal.

Reveals Shilpi Dasgupta, “The series brims with extraordinary, real characters… intense pride, devious deceit, violent retribution, but above all majestic love. Paan Parda Zarda is a sensory overload that will leave audiences numb in its aftermath, much like a hit of the opiate that has been deployed to win wars and change fortunes in Asia for centuries. Indeed, much of the history of our region has been dictated by whosoever has controlled opium.”

Paan Parda Zarda reflects Big Synergy’s ambition to create path-breaking fiction content. With our current and prospective collaborations with A-List creators in Bollywood and regional markets, we’re all set to entertain viewers with top-notch content,” said Rajiv Bakshi, the CEO of Reliance Entertainment’s Big Synergy.

The upcoming series is being helmed by producer Namit Sharma, who said “Set against a fresh, unseen milieu, the series has all the elements of an epic tale that straddles human drama, organised crime and political machinations… but at its heart, is a beautiful love story.”

This amazing pairing with the director of Mirzapur leaves no doubt that the audience can expect the most thrilling Indian web series.
