Malayalam filmmaker Srinath Rajendran, known for the 2021 hit crime thriller Kurup<\/i>, is making his Bollywood debut. Srinath will helm a Hindi film inspired by the life of Dhani Ram Mittal, a famous conman and forger. The film is based on the book MoneyRam<\/i>, co-authored by Preeti Aggarwal and Chetan Unniyal. <\/p>\n

Dhani Ram Mittal, varyingly dubbed \u2018Super Natwarlal\u2019 and \u2018Indian Charles Shobraj\u2019, was implicated in over a hundred theft and forgery cases and arrested 95 times. He had a penchant for stealing cars and once posed as a judge and granted bail to undertrials. He passed away earlier this year at 85. <\/p>\n

Srinath\u2019s last film, Kurup<\/i>, starring Dulquer Salmaan in the title role, also detailed the exploits of a criminal. The film was based on the real-life story of Sukumara Kurup, one of Kerala\u2019s most infamous fugitives.<\/p>\n

\u201cCinema today transcends borders and languages,\u201d Srinath said in a statement. \u201cI am thrilled to embark on this new journey in Hindi cinema. Dhani Ram Mittal, or Money Ram<\/i>, is arguably the most fascinating conman in modern Indian history, and I can\u2019t wait to bring his story to the big screen.\u201d<\/p>\n

The film is currently in the writing stages and will begin filming in early 2025. It is produced by Insomnia Media and Content Services Limited, in association with Pretty Pictures.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
