Acclaimed filmmaker Ashutosh Gowariker, known for his films such as Lagaan, Swades, Jodhaa Akbar and Mohenjo Daro, was last seen on the silver screen in the 1992 film Chamatkar starring Shah Rukh Khan and Naseeruddin Shah and now, more than a decade later, Gowariker will make a comeback to acting in Priyanka Chopra's upcoming production venture Ventilator.
Reportedly, it was director Rajesh Mapuskar, who came up with the idea of signing up Gowariker for the role as he wanted an actor with no baggage and with a good personality. The teaser of the film was revealed yesterday and from what we could see, the film revolves around one Gajanan Kaka, who is admitted in a hospital and has been kept on a ventilator and how this situation affects his friends and family members. Gowariker is seen playing a family member and we must say that it was quite good to see the filmmaker on the silver screen after a long time.
Apart from Gowariker, Ventilator also stars Jitendra Joshi, Sukanya Kulkarni, Nikhil Ratnaparkhi, Usha Nadkarni, Satish Alekar and others.
