A compelling story of love, struggle and survival is all set to come
alive on the big screen this month.
The successful team of Fox Star Studios and Vishesh Films is
now back with a pathbreaking movie experience with ‘Citylights’ this May.
Citylights brings back the National Award winning duo Hansal
Mehta and Rajkummar Rao, after their earlier venture ‘Shahid’ vowed the audiences and
the critics alike bagging all major film awards for the year 2013.
Rajkummar Rao is paired opposite actress Patralekha who will
be making her debut with this film.
CITYLIGHTS is based on the life of a trader in Rajasthan who
comes to the City of Mumbai with his wife and daughter in hope of a better
life. The challenges they face, their encounter with a big city and how they
rise to meet those challenges nurtured by the power of their love is what Citylights
is all about.
The story revolves around Rajkummar's character who dreams
of an improved life for his family and moves to a big city in the hope of
making a living but soon his dreams come crashing down as he finds city of
lights casting a dark shadow threatening to swallow the love of his life-his
wife and his child. How far must he go then to protect his family sets the tone
of this emotional love story against the backdrop of a thriller.
At heart Citylights is a love story, a story about familial
bonding, a thriller that explores the depths of human nature and a drama about
sacrifice in the city of dreams. Citylights is about our world, our times and
the ultimate emotion that drives every relationship - love.
In the words of Mahesh Bhatt, ‘Citylights’ is a moving love
story that begins in a village and peaks in a city’
Citylights’ is an official remake of the international award
winning film ‘Metro Manila’ that has received critical acclaim and won many
awards internationally.
Releasing on 30th May, 2014, CITYLIGHTS will give the
audiences an altogether new cinematic experience.
