Synopsis: Rann is about a battle between large unorganised forces (news channels), political parties and industrial czars. These are not just involved in a fight with each other but more importantly and frighteningly they are battling a war within themselves and this is especially true of news channels. Making news is not the easiest thing in the world so the next best thing obviously would be to make anything and everything appear to be news.
Synopsis: Striker is not a film about good versus evil. It is a story of friendship, life in the city of dreams in the 80s, a story of a game that is most common but non-existent. A story of a carrom player who grows up on the fringes of a criminal existence but does not succumb to it. Set in a Mumbai ghetto in the mid 80s and based on true life accounts, Striker is a story of triumph of human spirit over indomitable odds. Born into a poor family, Surya grows up with few luxuries. Poor health keeps him away from school often and that`s when his brother, Chandrakant, introduces him to carrom.
