Ullu, a popular streaming platform, recently launched its latest offering, #MeToo Wolf of Bollywood, helmed by Producer-Filmmaker-Entrepreneur Vibhu Agarwal. The show is made in association with Falguni Shah’s Dreamzz Images Studio and is directed by Deepak Pandey.
A moment that would eventually storm the whole nation, #MeToo Wolf of Bollywood revolves around the protagonist Karan Mathur’s life where he feels the guilt of the sad demise of an unknown starlet named Suvarna Pashte AKA Sana, who kills herself trying to tell Karan about her sexual harassment. His marriage to Avantika Sharma and her family of city’s influential socialites shatters as he takes it upon himself to avenge Sana’s suicide.
However, the big question remains that why would a calculative, sharp investment banker risk his personal and professional life, for a girl who was merely a part of his friends’ group. From a shady producer’s office, where girls perform a striptease show with music for a film role, the series forwards to workshops where astounding physical abuse in art’s name tends to be usual in the realm of theatre. Followed by glamorous parties where there is no dearth of drugs and alcohol, Karan Mathur navigates through it all, determined to catch the wrong-doer risking being caught and jailed, or worse, ending up getting killed by Sana’s perpetrators.
“After the tremendous response to Halala and Panchali, we are back with #MeToo Wolf of Bollywood. People of today’s era are smart. They have begun to grasp the aspects of content as they try to relate to it. Ullu’s scripts are made in accordance to modern thought processes and the way today’s people interact,” averred Vibhu Agarwal, the man behind the Ullu App.
“People, from small villages and towns, come to the city to try their luck in Bollywood. But, they never reach Bollywood. What #MeToo Wolf of Bollywood portrays is how people are taken advantage of in Bollywood. The show is aptly titled. Vibhuji and I were clear from the very start that we want to empower women. And personally, I stand for and by the #MeToo movement. For me, it is a very important movement and so is this project," added Vivan Bhathena who portrays the protagonist.
Ullu’s #MeToo Wolf of Bollywood has a stellar cast of Vivan Bhathena, Amit Behl, Ridheema Tiwari, and many others.
