The adrenaline-charged project will be directed by Anthony D’Souza, known for films such as Boss, Blue, and Azhar. Adding more expertise to the mix is India’s musical maestro A R Rahman, who will compose the music.
Bhanushali Studios Limited has been steadily rising up the ranks through collaboration with industry giants like Warner Bros Pictures, Aanand L Rai’s Colour Yellow Productions, Hansal Mehta’s True Story Films, and Ali Abbas Zafar’s AAZ Films. Their latest collaboration with Michael Bay hints at a bold leap into an era of international synergy.
About the film
Michael Bay, while talking about his first Indian collaboration, stated, "It will be an exciting chance to mix Hollywood's action style with the heart and emotion of Indian storytelling. Working with Rahman, Vinod, and Tony is a chance to create a new kind of cinematic experience—one with power, rhythm, and incredible visuals. Tony’s vision, especially how he handles scale and emotion in his movies, will make this collaboration really fulfilling."
A.R. Rahman shared, “When different worlds of cinema come together, it opens up a beautiful space for music. For me, composing is about finding the film’s soul and giving the score its own unique personality, a voice for the unsaid. I try to let the music carry the emotion.”
Vinod Bhanushali, Chairman and Managing Director of Bhanushali Studios Limited, expressed, “Cinema is global, stories are universal, and collaborations like these remind us that scale has no borders. To create a film where Michael Bay’s kinetic mastery meets the poetic musical universe of A.R. Rahman is nothing short of a dream forged in ambition. As our team comes together across continents, we are hopeful that an Indian story can find its voice on a truly global stage.”
Finally, director Anthony D’Souza, who will helm this venture, revealed, “By bringing together both the incendiary ingenuity and the visionary ethos of Michael Bay, the ethereal musical genius of Rahman sir with the support and cinematic narrative of Bhanushali Studios, it is both an honour and a privilege to collaborate with the true legends of cinema, whose mastery continues to inspire and humble me. With this cinematic endeavour, we aspire to harmonise the cadence of relentless velocity and to conjure a spectacle so grand yet resonant with soul.”
The film is currently in the early stages of development. More updates will follow as the project moves ahead.
