The movie based on the best-selling novel ‘The Extraordinary Journey of the Fakir Who Got Trapped in an Ikea Wardrobe’ by French author Romain Puertolas, the film has Dhanush playing a street magician, Ajatashatru Lavash Patel.
In the first look of the movie Dhanush shared on his Twitter handle,in which he looks as a young boy who comes from a very small part of Mumbai.
He is an innocent kid who knows only about his neighbours and lands up in Paris when he grows up.
Every frame in the teaser video looks convincing and Dhanush doesn’t fail to impress with his acting skills.
Indian tunes of a tabla in the background sounds intriguing.
The director of the comedy-drama, Ken Scott, says, “Working with Dhanush and so many other actors from so many different cultures was truly inspiring. We shot in many different countries and it was very important for us to take advantage of these different settings.”
“We wanted these different countries to impact the journey of the main character.” The Extraordinary Journey Of The Fakir has been shot in India, France, Italy, England and Libya. It also stars Oscar-nominated actors Berenice Bejo, Barkhad Abdi, Gérard Jugnot, Erin Moriarty and Abel Jafri,” Ken Scott said.
Sharing the teaser poster, Dhanush tweeted, “Here is the teaser poster of “the extraordinary journey of the fakir” .. my first English film. It’s been an extraordinary journey indeed… THIS SUMMER. @LRCF6204 hope you guys like it.”
In the poster, Dhanush has donned a colourful Rajasthani turban as he peeps out of a box in amazement.
