Jyothi Venkatesh

National award winning writer-director Ashwini Chaudhary, best known for ‘Dhoop’ and 'Laado' has announced his next - a socio-political  thriller inspired by true life events titled 'Setters' which promises to keep the audience on the edge of their seats. While the film is scripted by Siraj Ahmed, it is being produced by Lovely Films. Shot across Banaras, New Delhi, Jaipur, Mumbai and other cities, the film will go on floors on 10th October 2018 and will release early next year. Acclaimed composers and music directors Salim Sulaiman have been roped in for the musical score.The plot of the film revolves around the rackets and scams that have infiltrated into the employment and education market to appease desperate youngsters vying for limited opportunities in government offices. It is a real time narrative that exposes the modus operandi of the mafia who have created a parallel nexus and always avoid incarceration due to money and muscle power.The film stars Aftab Shivdasani, Shreyas Talpade,  Sonnalli Seygall, Ishita Dutta, Pavan Malhotra, Vijay Raaz, Jameel Khan, Manu Rishi etc. Other names featured include Neeraj Sood, Zeishan Quadri, Pankaj Jha and Paritosh Sund. Ashwini Chaudhary elaborates, “ The employment and education mafia in India is endemic, organised and elaborate. The plot of the film is inspired by certain true-life events which we have researched on before we scripted the story. Setters is about the trap that tilts the system towards mediocrity and the have-alls. Massive networks profit from the desperation of students and parents to succeed in a country where university seats and job opportunities alike are limited. The government has been focusing on building new institutes, setting up rigorous systems of entry points in job market, but in reality a breed of facilitators is being created who manage to circumvent procedures and check points ingenuously. Setters is about these masterminds.”
