Harry Baweja is sparing nothing to ensure Harman Baweja's debut film Lovestory 2050 succeeds by spending large budgets on a daily basis
In further attempts to raise the profile the film featuring his son Harman Baweja and Priyanka Chopra will premiere in London at Cineworld Feltham on Wednesday 2nd July 2008 7 pm.
The Hindi film a futuristic sci-fi, love story loooks like it will set the standards of special effects for the rest of Bollywood courtesy of its reported budget of Rs.500 million.
Transformation of Mumbai into a super-futuristic metropolis, modelled on Shanghai, robot, teddy bears and an energy-blasting fight scene are some of the visual treats awaiting viewers when the film by director Harry Bajewa goes on general release July 4.
Debuting Harman Baweja opposite Priyanka Chopra, Love Story 2050 has some spectacular special effects and may just be the push needed for filmmakers in India to invest in the country's own sprouting industry.
India has emerged as the destination of choice for Hollywood studios to outsource their animation and special effects, but domestic film studios have been far more cautious, reluctant to commit large sums into the digital productions.
Hindi filmmakers have backed away from investing huge sums on special effects and instead preferred to park most of the film's budget for remunerations of stars. As a result, though the country has the wherewithal that meets international standards, films churned in Bollywood suffer from low tech effects and amaturish graphics.
