Dev Patel can be seen directing his debut film “Monkey Man” which is also Sobhita Dhulipala’s first international film debut. After making waves across India by starring in pan-India blockbusters such as Major, and the Ponniyin Selvan series, and starring in the successful series Made In Heaven, Sobhita Dhulipala will now be seen in The Monkey Man opposite Dev Patel.
In the trailer, two glimpses of Sobhita have been seen, and without giving out much about her character, the makers kept her screen presence intriguing enough. Sobhita looks gorgeous in the film, and the makers have dropped a hint, about how she pushed Dev to come out from his miserable life and become saviour of the suppressed.
Monkey Man – About the movie
Monkey Man will be the directorial debut of Slumdog Millionaire star Dev, who has also written the film. The upcoming film derives inspiration from Lord Hanuman, and the protagonist (Dev) is seen wearing the face mask of a monkey during the fights. The basic premise of Monkey Man is about how an anonymous young man transforms from an underground fighter to the messiah of people.
The trailer was released on YouTube and shows how an anonymous young man survives a meagre living in an underground fight club where, night after night, wearing a gorilla mask, he is beaten bloody by more popular fighters for cash.
After years of suppressed anger, Kid discovers a way to discover the enclave of the city’s sinister elite. As his childhood trauma hits him hard, his mysteriously scarred hands unleash an explosive campaign of retribution to settle the score with the men who took everything from him. Apart from Dev, and Sobhita, Monkey Man also stars Pitobash, Vipin Sharma, Ashwini Kalsekar, Sikandar Kher, and Makarand Deshpande.
