Speaking to media in Mumbai she said, "I congratulate producer Vikram M Shah and his team of talented professionals for taking a bold step in making India's first Eco-friendly or "green film". Last week, the Vikram M Shah promoted Ciemme Entertainment announced that its first in-house production "Pocket Gangsters" directed by Hemant Nilim Das is India's first 100 per cent Eco-friendly and "Green" film.

According to producer Vikram M Shah, "We have adopted various green practices like reducing or eliminating the use of plastic during the pre-production, shooting and post-production, reducing power and electricity consumption, eliminating the use of fossil-fuels, using hybrid sources of power, eliminating the use of non Eco-friendly paints, products and items during set construction, using only Eco-friendly products and adopting several other procedures and practices like shutting down air-conditioners when not required to reduce the ecological footprint of our film. There is so much more, we would be more than happy to share with media persons how we managed to make this film 100 per cent Eco-friendly and a "green" project."

PG or Pocket Gangsters - India's first one-take-one-shot and uncut film is a niche film. 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 comeback after a long hiatus. He portrays the character of a blind gangster. Mukesh Bhatt and Vijay Raaz are the other two gangsters in the project. "It is not a general purpose masala product," says Hemant Nilim Das, director of the film.

'Pocket Gangsters' is directed by Hemant Nilim Das and is produced by Vikram M Shah of Ciemme Entertainment Pvt. Ltd. Singers such as Debanjali Biswas, Shalmali Kholgade and Feriyal Mistry have added a new zing and energy to the hostage-drama-cum-comic-thriller film.
