Save for the Oscar-nominated Lagaan, films involving the game of cricket have failed at the box- office. Awaal Number or Stumped anyone?
But Sanjay Srinivas is least bothered. His film Silence Please...The Dressing Room is a cinematic adaptation of an English play that he directed called The Dressing Room.
Interestingly, like the ongoing cricket series between India and Pakistan (where India won the One dayers), the plot of Silence Please... also involves a goodwill match between the two nations. Only here, terrorist organisations try to disrupt the game.
Scheduled for an April 2 release, the cast features Sonali Kulkarni, Salil Ankola, Arif Zakaria and Tom Alter.
