A film that's been in the news ever since its announcement, âMonkey Man', marks Dev Patel's directorial debut and stars Dev Patel, Sobhita Dhulipala, Sharlto Copley, Sikander Kher, and a talented ensemble star cast is on the final leg of its completion.
Set in contemporary India, Monkey Man follows the Kid (Patel) who emerges from prison to take on a world enmeshed in corporate greed and eroding spiritual values.
While the team wrapped the filming last year and post-production is in full swing, the patchwork of the film is being shot here in India.
Says a source, "Monkey Man is a vibrant, thrilling and above all entertaining story. The post-production patchwork happened in Mumbai and is completed now. Everything fell into place beautifully and the team is incredibly happy with the way it has shaped out."
