In The Mehta Boys, Boman Irani brings to life a complex character, combining humor and depth to portray the emotional intricacies of a father-son relationship. His powerful performance has resonated with audiences, earning him well-deserved recognition at both festivals.
Earlier, at the 15th Chicago South Asian Film Festival (CSAFF), Boman spoke about the making of the film. He said, “This film started many years ago, actually, with a friend, producer, and director named Sujoy Ghosh, who wanted to cast me in a film. He came over to my house while I was running a fever and pitched me a few ideas. Among them was this one-liner: The Mehta Boys. I said I wanted to do that one because I wanted to direct it.”
He further revealed, “I’ll tell you how long this film really took: it took almost 55 days to make because I never really wanted to be an actor or a filmmaker. I always thank my mother for introducing me to cinema the way she did.”
The film, which stars Avinash Tiwary and Shreya Chaudhary, is co-written by Alex Dinelaris and produced by Danesh Irani of Irani Movietone and Anikta Batra of Chakboald Ltd. The Mehta Boys is slated for release on Amazon Prime Video, where viewers can experience this touching story soon. With these awards, Boman Irani’s debut as a director is already creating waves, and excitement builds for its upcoming release.
