Shareen Mantri Kedia to bet for real Bandit Queen!


Shareen Mantri Kedia wanted to make films that would interest global audiences when she turned producer, so that’s just what she’s doing!

The photographer-turned-moviemaker backed Majid Majid’s Beyond The Clouds and now she’s making the new Phoolan Devi biopic too. Shareen bought the rights to the film from the dacoit-turned-politician’s husband Umed Singh and is now interviewing directors for the project. Phoolan had famously disputed the accuracy of Shekhar Kapur’s The Bandit Queen, so we’ll definitely get the right story this time.
