Three years after the release of Rang De Basanti, director Rakeysh Omprakash Mehra's wife PS Bharathi is making a documentary on the
film.
Bharathi has named the documentary film after the song Ru-ba-ru from RDB.
The film is based on the relevance and impact of
RDB across the world. Rakeysh said, "Ru-ba-ru will contain lots of views and information on Rang De Basanti. Everybody associated with the film has
spoken about it. The documentary will contain unreleased footage. There are opinions from various scholars, analysts and critics. It's very
humbling. We all felt that the film's impact needed to be documented in an unconventional format."
Will he work on the project with his
wife? Rakeysh said, "I always keep away when my wife is doing her work. After I finish shooting my film, I surrender the footage to her and leave.
She edits all my films and she would like it no other way.”
Talking about RDB, Rakeysh said, "I never expected RDB to have this kind of
an impact. The movie became bigger than all of us. It came at time when people needed to redefine their priorities. It didn't matter who made it. It
could've been anyone, but the time was right for an RDB. I saw the film last month and I think it's completely relevant in today's times. Nothing
has changed in the three years since its release.”
