<h2 dir="auto">Film Story To Be Set Around Dawood-Chhota Rajan Split</h2>
<p dir="auto" data-pm-slice="1 1 []">After confirming a project together, Varma has now given a clear picture of the project. He revealed that he is co-producing the film while Suri will direct it, adding that he wrote the original script before Suri took it in a different direction.</p>
<p dir="auto">He wrote, "With regard to the film I am co producing, with @Mohit11481 directing…yes , I wrote the script but he upped it far higher to an altogether another dimension…"</p>
<p dir="auto" data-pm-slice="1 1 []">Explaining the backdrop, Varma said, "The story is set in the times of the Dawood Ibrahim, Chota Rajan split, due to a man called Sautya and how the Indian intelligence agencies were involved in the later proceedings which further led to some key events of the aftermath of the 93 serial blasts."</p>

<p dir="auto" data-pm-slice="1 1 []">Varma also talked about how Suri has brought his own filmmaking approach to the project, particularly through its characters, music and action. He added, "For a story with this kind of a backdrop Mohit brought in a tremendous flair of his own brand of ‘from the heart characters , superlative emotional music and never before thought of ultra realistic action’. Not that I am comparing us to them, but just as an example, I always wondered how it will be, if Coppola directed JAWS or Spielberg directed GODFATHER the contrast being the point. But their character mastery is the commonality and after seeing his vision for what I wrote, I believe that Mohit’s film will be much larger in scale than DHURANDHAR, and much more rooted than SATYA in its heart ."</p>
