Remember
Satyajit
Bhatkal,
the
director
of
Chale
Chalo:
The
lunacy
of
filmmaking?
The
man
who
had
a
lucrative
career
in
law,
shifted
focus
when
Aamir
Khan
invited
him
to
help
him
out
for
his
film
Lagaan.
Not
looking
back
he
directed
Chale
Chalo
which
was
the
making
of
Lagaan.
Now after a long hiatus, he will direct Bombay Lawyers, a mini-series based on inspiring legal cases related to corruption, crime, nepotism and social ills rampant in India form television.
Bhatkal said that the programme is a courtroom drama about real issues, real people and real conflicts, but in the emotional grammar of fiction.
After showing promise in his first film, this television series will definitely be something to watch out for.
