As long as there is a need for blue films, someone will fulfill that need. Now Kunal has to fast learn the ways of this world if he wants to expose the nexus which runs to highest strata of society in Switzerland.
If you dance with the devil, you don't change the devil. The devil changes you. Will Kunal be able to find Annie? Is she the enemy he is really looking for? And will Kunal be able to hold onto his morality in his all consuming desire for revenge?
The movie also stars Bhatt favorite Emran Hashmi in a special appearance as Alibhai, the owner of a sex-shop in Amsterdam. He also sports a new look for the film with pierced eyebrows and red colored hair. And that's not all! Actress Amrita Singh makes a comeback with this film and interestingly in a negative role of a woman in control of the pornographic industry.
Kalyug, directed by Mohit Suri, “is a fiction of fact,” says producer Mahesh Bhatt, of Vishesh Films.Raw, stark, shocking and deeply disturbing, the film explores the murky underbelly of international crime — pornography — and it’s international nexus. The characters have been taken from real life, interwoven with fiction.
Says Mohit, “Everything has been meticulously researched from journalistic data — from the PBS documentary American Porn, India Today’s article on desi porn and Times of India’s articles on honeymoon couples.
Pornography is a $56 billion industry today, with big companies and hotels profiting from it.
Kalyug was initially titled Blue Film. Says Mohit,
"No newcomer wanted to play a role in it, as it hinted at being a sleazy film, which it is
not.
For Deepal’s role, we had originally approached Sunny Leone, a top Indian porn star, but she wasn’t available. She has an official website in her name, lives in the USA and is extremely beautiful. We couldn’t afford her; her fee is $1 million."
