Sonu Sood’s next film Kisaan was announced on Monday, and the news is a timely one at that with the ongoing farmers’ protest.
Directed by E Niwas, Kisaan is backed by screenwriter-director Raaj Shaandilyaa (of Dream Girl-fame).
Bollywood superstar Amitabh Bachchan took to Twitter to make the announcement. ‘All good wishes to film #Kisaan, directed by #ENiwas and acted by @SonuSood,’ he said.
Other details about the cast and crew are currently kept under wraps.
Notably, Sonu had recently launched a book recounting his experience of helping migrant workers during the COVID-19 lockdown. Titled I Am No Messiah, the book is written in the first person, revealing the emotional challenges the actor faced while extending help.
