Families, relationships, identity; these ideas have evolved a lot, and cinema must evolve with them. Rahman has at all times had the rare ability to create music that speaks on to the soul of a story and its audience. Having him as each composer and inventive partner on this journey makes it much more meaningful.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>A.R. Rahman also shared his thoughts on joining the film in multiple capacities. \u201cWorking with Shekhar has at all times been a deeply enriching experience, he has been a mentor and a creative force in some ways. When he shared the vision for this film, I felt compelled to be involved beyond the music. There\u2019s something timeless about <em>Masoom<\/em>, and reinterpreting that emotional world for a brand new generation feels each exciting and essential,\u201d Rahman said.<\/p>\n<p>The film will feature an ensemble solid that features Naseeruddin Shah, Shabana Azmi, Manoj Bajpayee, Nithya Menen, and Kaveri Kapur.<\/p>\n<p>Released in 1983, the unique <em>Masoom<\/em> stays probably the most acclaimed movies in Hindi cinema and is remembered for its portrayal of family relationships and emotional conflicts. With <em>Masoom: The Recent Generation<\/em>, the makers aim to revisit a few of those themes while placing them in a recent social context.<\/p>\n<p>The film is currently in pre-production and is anticipated to start filming later this yr. A worldwide theatrical release is planned for 2026.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Also Read:\u00a0Shekhar Kapur describes an emotional airport encounter with a Masoom fan; the fan says, \u201cSir, they don\u2019t make movies from the guts anymore\u201d<\/strong><\/p>\n<h4><\/h4>\n<div class=\"entry-tags\">\n<div class=\"tag-links\"><strong>Tags : <\/strong> A.
