After garnering immense adulation for ‘Dobara,’ Rahul Bhat is back with another mind-boggling thriller, ‘Kennedy!’ The film is helmed by Anurag Kashyap and has been selected for ‘Midnight screening’ at the Festival De Cannes 2023.
‘Kennedy’ is essentially a police noir film, by Anurag Kashyap. On sharing his delight over the selection at the world’s most illustrious film festival and working with Anurag Kashyap, Rahul added, “Three years ago, my life fell apart and just when I felt I couldn’t plunge deeper into an abyss, there came along Anurag Kashyap who showed me facets of darkness that I didn’t even know existed within me. Kennedy is a character that both ripped me apart and stitched me back again. The film’s official selection to Cannes is further validation to the genius of Anurag and I will be forever indebted to him for making me his Kennedy.”
Rahul has previously worked with him on Dobaara and Ugly. On working with him again, Rahul further added, “I think that role in Dobaara did something which got him thinking. He has a commendable perception and surely knows how to extract the best from actors.”
The film revolves around an insomniac ex-cop, Kennedy, who is assumedly dead but continues to operate for the corrupt system. Kennedy is written and directed by Anurag Kashyap starring Rahul Bhat and Sunny Leone. The film is produced by Zee Studios, Ranjan Singh & Kabir Ahuja.
