Mumbai: 'Ludo', arguably India’s first legitimate gore horror fable film, had its Indian premiere at MAMI 2015, as the opening film for the new 'After dark' section.
At the MAMI Film Mart (MFM), the film team announced that Phantom Films has bought the rights to remake 'Ludo' in Hindi. Director Qaushiq Mukherjee (popularly known as Q) is going to direct the new film.
“It’s more of a rewrite than a remake actually. The idea of Ludo is fluid, and, like most horror ideas, is perfect for a franchise. The new Ludo will be a completely different film, based on the same premise. This time, the horror will unfold in curiously unusual ways,”said Q.
Vikramaditya Motwane added, “We’re delighted to announce a hindi version of Ludo. Q is one of the most exciting directors in the country and we couldn’t be happier about our partnership. We look forward to a kick-ass, mind-numbing, scary-as-shit, entertaining and frightening film. If not, we will eat his entrails.”
