London, Oct 4 (PTI) In a unique marriage between the best of Bollywood and Hollywood, Fox Star Studios has entered into a multiple-film deal with ace producer Vipul Shah, whose latest film 'Singh is Kinng' became the top-grosser Indian film of all times. The pact includes development and production of a visual effects-driven fantasy action movie, a romantic comedy and a first look deal on Shah's future projects.
"It is just amazing how Indian cinema has continued to reinvent itself and is today the best expression of popular Indian culture. Our relationship with Vipul is special - a shared vision to create global quality content, but with an Indian soul for Indian audiences across the world," Singh added. He also said that the company was committed to bring global strengths of Twentieth Century Fox and STAR in the development, production, distribution and marketing of Bollywood movies. Noting that the Indian film industry is expected to touch 4.4 billion dollars mark by 2012 from 2.4 billion dollars in 2007, Singh said, "It provides tremendous opportunity to grow." Vipul Shah, whose first film as producer - 'Singh is Kinng' - grossed over Rs 150 crores worldwide, is now working on Salman Khan and Ajay Devgan starrer 'London Dreams,' again one of the biggest films in the line up for 2009. Shah's first three directorial ventures 'Aankhein', 'Waqt' and 'Namastey London' have also done a brisk business.
