January 20, Siddharth Anand, who is currently busy with the shoot of King starring Shah Rukh Khan, met global spiritual leader Sri Sri Ravi Shankar along with producer Mahaveer Jain. The meeting was held in an atmosphere of deep reflection and vision, centred around the upcoming international thriller White, a project that marks a unique milestone in Indian cinema. The film, which features Vikrant Massey alongside an international cast, is inspired by the incredible true story of the 52-year-long civil conflict in Colombia and its historic resolution through non-violence and peace. Ad filmmaker Montoo Bassiis is directing the film, co-produced by Peacecraft Pictures, along with Siddharth’s Marflix Pictures and Mahaveer Jain Films.

It doesn’t just tell the story of one individual; it stands as a testament to the immense strength and weight that Indian values and philosophies carry on the world stage.”

Siddharth further added, “Sitting with Gurudev is an incredibly grounding experience. His presence reinforces what we are trying to capture in White – the true power of peace."
