Over the past few years, the industry has grown not just in terms of content, but also in terms of talent. And while we see lots of newcomers join the film, TV, or OTT space, the latest one to be launched in the industry is late music composer Aadesh Shrivastava‘s son Avitesh Shrivastava. The boy will be launched into the film world with producer Deepak Mukut and Mansi Bagla‘s film Sirf Ek Friday.
Check out the film’s poster here:
The story is a heartwarming tale of a son hailing from a luxurious life, who fulfills his ill mother’s dream to see him as an actor. But the boy’s journey to stardom also turns out to be a journey of self-discovery filled with some emotional life lessons. Sounds interesting, right? The film will be helmed by Lloyd Baptista.
Talking about his debut, Avitesh said in a statement…
It’s such a huge honor and privilege for me to be a part of this film. I was deeply moved by the story. It hit home the very instant I read it. It’s the kind of film that takes an actor through a personal journey of self-exploration and that’s so exciting for me. I can’t wait to start shooting.
On launching Avitesh, producer Deepak Mukut says,
We wanted an unusual cast for a film of this nature. It’s a poignant story and Avitesh’s raw energy moved us. He has an easy screen presence. The film explores the behind-the-scenes of an artist’s craft and what it takes to be a fine actor. It is a deep exploration of an actor’s psyche and we know Lloyd will bring out the best to the screen.
Producer Mansi Bagla adds,
It is a heartwarming script and we wanted a new face for the film. Someone who comes with no screen baggage at all. Avitesh brought the innocence of the character beautifully in the screen test. The film talks about materialistic desire vis-a-vis human emotions in today’s times.
Sirf Ek Friday is produced by Deepak Mukut, Mansi Bagla, and Varun Bagla under their banners of Soham Rockstar Entertainment Pvt. Ltd. and Mini Films, and co-produced by Hunar Mukut. And I must say, I am excited to see Avitesh in this wonderful story soon.
