KHANDWA : ‘Dadda Malkhan Singh’, a movie based on the life of former dacoit Malkhan Singh is being shot in Khandwa these days.
The muhurat shot of the movie was captured by social worker Sunil Jain. Director of the movie Mukesh Chaukse, who is playing the lead role, says that Malkhan Singh is at Khandwa jail where the shooting is in progress. He claims that the movie is based on a true story and the real picture of the ravines will come up through the movie.
Mukesh Chaukse says that though many movies have been made on life and exploits of dacoits, but ‘Dadda Malkhan Singh’ being produced under the banner of ‘Yogi Films Entertainment’ will be entirely different from all those movies as it won’t have horse riding dacoits nor any vulgar songs.
Mukesh said that this movie is based on the life of Malkhan Singh who had a reign of terror in the decades of 60’s and 70’s. The cast of the film includes Hemant Birje, Dimple Kapadia, Priti Chaukse, Kadar Khan and Junior Mehmood. The shooting is 70% percent complete and it was done in Gwalior, Bhind, Burhanpur, Dabra, Kanpur, Bilav and some places in Rajasthan.
