PG or Pocket Gangsters - India's first one-take, one-shot and uncut film is ready for release in over 900+ screens in the country, announced director Hemant Nilim Das at the recording of a promo song for the movie at a studio in suburban Mumbai. Present at the music recording were music directors Lucky-Navi and actors Mukhesh Bhatt and Raghubir Yadav along with Hemant Nilim Das. The film is likely to release on 26th September 2014. "This is a niche film, not a general purpose masala product. We are still considering about 900 screens as we want to make it available across the length and breadth of India," Das said.

Says Hemant Nilim Das, "PG is loosely based on the story of the kidnapping and murder of an NGO-activist Sanjay Ghose and is a hostage drama cum comic thriller. It is the story of a girl who is worth millions. The plot has numerous twists and turns, the storytelling is highly cathartic and the music is romantic. A true gangster spirited feature....the film engages you from the beginning till end with shock and awe." It is a niche product, not a typical Salman Khan entertainer. The film has some very "real scenes" that depict abduction, kidnapping, rape and extortion. My film is not about sensationalism.

This is a very niche product and portrays a true story. It is not a Salman Khan or Akshay Kumar general entertainer. And I am proud to say that it is not a normal weekend film. It is very serious cinema and based on an actual story meant for intellectual and sensible cinema lovers. Earlier I thought it could be a great Festival Film, but then I realized its potential when my producer Vikram M Shah screened the film for a select group of 300 people from different walks of life and diverse demographic segments.

Dubbed as gangster thriller, the movie has been inspired by true events and takes you on a mind-boggling journey. It is based on the distressing topic of kidnapping and stars Shivangi Mehra as the female lead. Raghubir Yadav makes a come back after a long hiatus. He portrays the character of a blind gangster."

'Pocket Gangsters' is directed by Hemant NIlim Das and is produced by Vikram M Shah of Ciemme Entertainment Pvt. Ltd. Debanjali Biswas and Shalmali Kholgade have added a new zing and energy to the hostage-drama-cum-comic-thriller film Pocket Gangsters. Pareshaan fame singer Shalmali Kholgade lent her voice for the Janiyaa Jaaniyaa track of Pocket Gangsters while Debanjali Biswas has sung the track Halke Halke.

Raghubir Yadav has already proved his acting prowess long back with 'Massey Sahib', which won him two international awards and Mira Nair`s 'Salaam Bombay!'. Known as an all-round entertainer, he has composed the title track for the hit TV show Chacha Chaudhary and also sung 'Mehngai Dayain' for Aamir Khan`s 'Peepli Live'.


The movie stars Madhur Mittal of Slumdog Millionaire and Million Dollar Arms fame and Shivangi Mehra in the lead and is slated to release on 26th September this year.

The cast includes Shivangi Mehra who had a small role in Once Upon a Time Dobara, Raghubir Yadav of Peepli Live, Vijay Raaz known Dedh Ishqiya, Mukesh Bhatt, Monalisa & also stars Hemant Nilim Das.
