Mumbai: The legendary film-maker, who has always set a new benchmark for the Indian film fraternity and has made some of the most memorable movies that we have cherished like the ‘Munnabhai’ series, ‘3 Idiots’, ‘Mission Kashmir’, ‘Parinda’, among several others, has once again decided to reinvent the wheel. He has stepped out of his comfort zone and with ‘Broken Horses’. He becomes the first Indian filmmaker to make a Hollywood production. It is the first Hollywood film produced, directed and written by an Indian.
Set in the shadows of the US–Mexico border gang wars, ‘Broken Horses’ is an epic thriller about the bonds of brotherhood, the laws of loyalty, and the futility of violence.
