MUMBAI: One of India‘s leading television networks, Multi Screen Media (MSM) announced the release of two of the movies this year which have been produced by its motion picture arm MSM Motion Picture. First of which is ‘Bajatey Raho‘ releasing on 26 July. The revenge comedy flick has been co-produced by Eros International and stars Dolly Ahluwalia, Vinay Pathak, Ranvir Shorey, Ravi Kissen and Vishakha Singh playing the leading roles.
Throwing light on their next titled, ‘Mango‘ which will be helmed by the renowned director Abbas Tyrewala and produced in association with Kaleidoscope Entertainment (KEPL).

Set in the heart of Goa, Mango marks Abbas‘ third directorial venture and is set to cast the same spell that his directorial debut Jaane Tu Ya Jaane Na did at the box office in 2008.
In an interesting plot based in the calm atmosphere of modern Goa in the monsoons, this frenzied film traces one night in the life of five youngsters, whose stories intertwine in a manner quite unlikely changing their lives altogether.
As revealed by the production house Mango outlines a story of love, life, friendship, relationships and betrayal with primary, secondary and even incidental romances sharing the spotlight with the main characters where some chase love, while others chase money.
Commenting on MSM‘s venture into motion business, MSM CEO Man Jit Singh said, "We realise that there is a huge untapped market in the motion picture business and the sector has immense growth potential. We have the expertise and experience in this domain and hence it was a logical extension for us. We plan to produce movies across different genres."
"Mango is a romcom with a twist. Shot in the beautiful locales of Goa the film captures the tale of five youngsters whose lives are entwined by destiny. Mango is a young film and will appeal to masses. It will break the clutter through its refreshing content and fresh casting." says MSM COO NP Singh.
KEPL‘s Bobby Bedi added, "One of my most successful films was my first foray into mainstream Bollywood - that is Saathiya - a romcom with a difference. Today I re-enter the same space with some of my best colleagues - Abbas, who wrote Maqbool, Aradhana, who designed Fire, Allan - action director for Bandit Queen, and Mulchand who has lit every single work I have ever done. Together we are producing what we believe is a really funny and fast paced film, deliciously called Mango".
