‘Safed’ celebrates unconventional love of widow and eunuch

Presented by Legend Studios and Anand Pandit, ‘Safed’ has been produced by Ajay Harinath Singh and Sandeep Singh…reports Asian Lite News

The upcoming film ‘Safed’, the poster of which was unveiled on Tuesday, celebrates an unconventional love between a widow and a eunuch. The film stars Meera Chopra of ‘Section 375’ fame, Abhay Verma, Barkha Bisht, Chhaya Kadam, and Jameel Khan and has been directed by Sandeep Singh, marking his debut as a director.

Talking about the film, Abhay Verma shared: “Amidst the luxuries that one can offer to others, we often forget the most precious gift given to us as humans – the ability to love, which should not know any limits or parameters. ‘Safed’ is nothing but a reminder that love is a language older than humanity.”

Director Sandeep Singh, who has produced films like ‘Ram Leela’, ‘Rowdy Rathore’, ‘Mary Kom’, ‘Aligarh’, ‘Sarbjit’, said, “Safed portrays the emotions of that section of society that we know exists but rarely acknowledge. I feel honoured to begin my debut as a director with a story of a world that most of us know little about. Also, it being Valentine’s Day today, love calls for a celebration, throwing light on a path that may be dark. ‘Safed’ is now ready and I am geared up for its release.”

He added: “The film has been shot in the world’s oldest city Varanasi. The entire shoot was completed in just 11 days with the minimal crew members.”

Presented by Legend Studios and Anand Pandit, ‘Safed’ has been produced by Ajay Harinath Singh and Sandeep Singh.
