Ramu's next film entitled Agyaat would be something he has never a done before. It is a film about an invisible predator creating havoc among a group of people in an isolated spot. An old Hollywood formula but never done properly in Hindi cinema. Something similar to “The Poseidon Adventure or The Towering Inferno”.
The film written by two Varma discoveries Punet Varma and Hari will be shot by a debutant cinematographer Surjo. It will be shot in Sri Lanka from next month. Ramu says “I recently went hunting for location in Sri Lanka. It was a stunning stretch of wilderness. I've never seen anything so frightening in my life. All the principal photography will be done in Sigria in 35 days. Then the special effects will be done in Mumbai. Agyaat will be a first of its kind in terms of effects.”
The film is about a film crew that loses its way in the jungles. And something out there starts killing them one by one. There's a narcissistic star, a subservient spotboy, cameraman, a frustrated action director, an assistant director, a self obsessed actor, a producer and a director. All of them have their own mindscape in the given hierarchy. But the moment they're caught in terror situation their inherent humanism comes to the surface.
Ramu wants to tailor the plot like a reality show. He is casting largely newcomers. He is supremely kicked by his new project. The challenging part in Agyaat is to create an evil force that's not visible, definable or even comprehensible. Agyaat is expected to have some of the best special effects seen in Indian cinema.
