In the time when the whole country is under a lockdown, people are being advised time and again by the government to stay at home for their safety. Film Fraternity is also not behind in conveying the same message to the citizens of the country. And now, different film industries of India came together for a short film titled 'Family' where different stars shot at their respective homes to convey the same message to the people of India.
Big B took to twitter and shared the film and wrote, "When you see that the cause is greater than the idea you dreamt of...there is just immense joy and gratitude for all my colleagues and friends in the making of this historic effort! WE ARE ONE and WE SHALL OVERCOME! JAI HIND!"
The film stars Amitabh Bachchan, Ranbir Kapoor, Alia Bhatt, Priyanka Chopra from Bollywood Industry, Diljit Dosanjh representing Punjabi Cinema, Rajnikanth from Tamil Industry, Mohanlal and Mammootty from Malayalam cinema, Chiranjeevi from Telugu Industry, Shivarajkumar from Kannada Cinema, Sonalee Kulkarni from Marathi Industry and Prosenjit Chaterjee from Bengali Cinema.
The concept has been virtually directed by Prasoon Pandey in collaboration with Sony Pictures Networks India and Kalyan Jewellers.
The film revolves around Big B looking for his sunglasses and all the other stars help him in finding those. In the end, he reveals that every one of them shot their part in their respective homes and did not step out of their house. He urges the viewers to stay at home to combat the spread of the virus. He also gives a special message at the end of the film where he says, "There's another reason why we made this film. The Indian film Industry is one, we are all one family. But there is another large family behind us which supports us and works with us, and that is our workers and daily wage earners, who are facing great difficulty due to the lockdown. We all have come together and teamed up with sponsors and TV channel to raise a fund. This fund will be distributed to our workers and daily wage earners to provide them some relief in these tough times."
The film has been received well by the film fraternity and the people of the country. It gives an important message to all in a very simple way that is to stay at home and stay safe. This too, shall pass!
