Posters for 'The Extraordinary Journey of the Fakir' is out and it has us drooling all over our computer screens. Dhanush's maiden Hollywood venture, the Ken Scott directorial is based on a Romain Puertolas novel by the same name. The post features Dhanush, Berenice Bejo, Barkhad Abdi, Erin Moriarty, and Abel Jafri sitting on a travel trunk-turned-hot balloon. Another featuring the IKEA wardrobe is also out.
The story revolves around Ajatashatru (Dhanush), who decides to go on a journey to find his father after losing his mother. The search takes him to Mumbai, Brussels, Paris, and Rome. Producer Luc Bossi said, “'The Extraordinary Journey of the Fakir' is also an out of the ordinary production adventure, creating through its producers, locations, and talent, a unique bridge between India, Europe, and Hollywood. Its cast reunites actors from more than 15 countries and an international Indo-French-Belgian-Italian crew with a common passion and goal: Tell a universal story full of laughs and emotions.”
The film is currently on post-production, and if reports are to be believed, it will be distributed by Sony Pictures in key areas like France and UK. It is expected to release in summer of 2018. Meanwhile, Dhanush is busy shooting for gangster drama 'Vada Chennai'.
