Bombay Velvet is the first of a trilogy of films planned by director Anurag Kashyap. It is based on Gyan Prakash\u2019s book Bombay Fables.<\/div>\n

<\/p>\n

\u00a0<\/div>\n

<\/p>\n

It showcases how a city becomes a metropolis set against the backdrop of ambition, love, greed, and jazz.<\/div>\n

<\/p>\n

\u00a0<\/div>\n

<\/p>\n

It is a story of one ordinary man who goes against all odds by forging his destiny to become a ‘Big Shot’ <\/div>\n

<\/p>\n

\u00a0<\/div>\n

<\/p>\n

Set in the 1960s lead stars Anushka Sharma and Ranbir Kapoor play lovers whose lives interact as the city of Bombay grows over the years.<\/div>\n

<\/p>\n

\u00a0<\/div>\n

<\/p>\n

Karan Johar makes his acting debut as the evil Kaizad Khambatta, a rich but dangerous businessman who will stop at nothing to get what he wants. He plays a significant part in the life of Ranbir Kapoor\u2019s character.<\/div>\n

<\/p>\n

\u00a0<\/div>\n

<\/p>\n

Anushka plays the role of Rosie a 60s\u2019 jazz singer in the Bombay Velvet nightclub. Meanwhile Ranbir is playing the role of a street fighter and risk taker Johny Balraj. He received training in Martial Arts for his role.<\/div>\n

<\/p>\n

\u00a0<\/div>\n

<\/p>\n

Donned with a 1960s look Bombay Velvet looks like a cross between the life of the American gangster Al Capone and a Broadway musical.<\/div>\n

<\/p>\n

\u00a0<\/div>\n

<\/p>\n

With young Ranbir Kapoor leading the way the film could very well turn out to be a surprise package at the UK box office upon release.<\/div>\n

<\/p>\n

\u00a0<\/div>\n

<\/p>\n

Jazz clubs, a passionate love story, a growing metropolis and a phenomenal hunger for a good life. Welcome to the City of Dreams. Welcome to Bombay Velvet.<\/div>\n
