Rakeysh Omprakash Mehra has an intriguing filmography, all of which are distinctive from one another. The filmmaker has often shown that he is a brilliant storyteller who enjoys exploring people and issues, whether it be in the cult classic Rang De Basanti, Delhi 6, or Farhan Akhtar’s biography of Milkha Singh, Bhaag Milkha Bhaag. Rakeysh Omprakash Mehra recently disclosed in an interview that he is venturing outside of his comfort zone with three different projects, including a comedy and an action caper.

Rakeysh Omprakash Mehra said, “I’m actually working on a couple of subjects,” in an interview with ETimes. One of them is based on mythology, while the others are comedies and action adventures. So, one of them ought to be accepted shortly. See which one the universe cooperates in. The connections ought should happen shortly.

The filmmaker went on to discuss why it’s important for him to depict real-life events on film.”I feel impelled, not merely out of necessity. It involves much more than simply a decision that I must make. Because of this, I must return what I feel, what I get, what I gain from the world, and everything else. So you can make a good tale out of what you see when you see it. You may respond by saying, “Listen, even with all of our wounds, we can still apply a soothing balm on them.” And that’s what I’ve always tried to do,” he said.

Rakeysh Omprakash Mehra continued by emphasizing, “And I think your work should always have a voice that can reach out to people and can emotionally impact them from the deep within. They also shouldn’t watch a movie and then immediately return to their house. They need to bring the movie back with them. And it’s amazing if it sticks with them. I watch movies in this manner since that’s how I’ve always done it. I used to be brought to tears. In a theater, I would sob, laugh, and dance.

The final movie directed by Rakeysh Omprakash Mehra, Toofan, starred Farhan Akhtar and Mrunal Thakur. The sports drama focused on the path of an extortionist who eventually becomes a boxing champion after receiving some helpful influences. In 2021, the movie was made available on a well-known OTT platform.
