Producer Sandeep Singh makes his directorial debut with ‘Safed’

Mumbai, May 15  Filmmaker Sandeep Singh, who has produced films such as ‘Mary Kom’, ‘Rowdy Rathore’,’Aligarh’, ‘Sarbjit’ and ‘Jhund’, is all set to make his

directorial debut with ‘Safed’, a love story.

The makers are heading to Cannes to unveil the first look of “Safed” with the lead actors Abhay Verma and Meera Chopra, along with the director Sandeep Singh, producers, Vinod Bhanushali and Ajay Harinath Singh. Co-producers Vishal Gurnani and Juhi Parekh Mehta will also be a part of the delegation.

Sandeep Singh shared, “I am honoured to begin my directorial venture with a film like ‘Safed’, a story that remains largely untold, a narrative that is underlined with stereotypical attitudes, and the truth that has to be told wholesome.

“It is humbling and encouraging that I begin with a story that comes from a world that most of us know so little about; a story that pains my heart in a way that gives me happiness.

The film was shot in world’s oldest city Banaras in just 11 days with the minimal crew of 35 people.

Vinod Bhanushali, who founded Bhanushali Studios Limited in 2021, shared: “Safed is a special film in many ways. I am proud to be associated with it and also glad that I am able to back Sandeep’s vision.”

Safed stars actor Abhay Verma and Meera Chopra in the lead.
It is written and directed by Sandeep Singh. The film is presented by Bhanushali Studios Limited and Legend Studios, and is produced by Vinod Bhanushali, Ajay Harinath Singh, and Sandeep Singh, and co-produced by Kamlesh Bhanushali, Vishal Gurnani, and Juhi Parekh Mehta.
