Produced by Window Seat Films and presented by Sajid Nadiadwala, ‘Highway’ has certainly managed to create a spellbinding effect on those who wish to see something beyond regular Rom-Coms or Masala films. The movie not only offers fresh breezes and new sights like the foothills of the Himalayas, but taps on a very novel section of a simple, silent love story which had been previously unexplored in Bollywood and no wonder this paved the way for its selection in the Panorama section of the 2014 Berlin International Film Festival. Although it doesn’t offer the entertainment quotient for the mass audience, it hasn’t proved to be abortive in creating a mark in Indian Cinema with its mesmerizing music by A.R. Rahman and thought-provoking script by Imtiaz Ali.
And that’s exactly the reason why the Rockstar of Bollywood couldn’t stop himself from promoting Sajid Nadiadwala’s ‘Highway’. Ranbir has always shared a special equation with Imtiaz Ali and as per reports, he had seen an early cut of this film and appreciated it hugely. In a special gesture by Ranbir, he landed up in Film City, Mumbai and moved around in the ‘Highway’ truck chatting with Imtiaz and Alia about the film for a news channel.
In the enigmatic world of Bollywood, rarely do you get to see actors promoting other films and even if they do so, it’s not without any personal benefit which can be in terms of monetary value or clandestine intentions. But the Kapoor lad apparently took time out of his busy work schedule to simply extend his support for Sajid Nadiadwala and his film ‘Highway’. A first of a kind friendly gesture indeed!
Kapoor Jr had played the role of a rebellious concert singer in Imtiaz’s blockbuster ‘Rockstar’and will soon be seen working opposite his ex-lover Deepika Padukone in his next film. But we would definitely love to see him pair up with the Patakha Guddi in the days to come!
