Hollywood’s Lucy Liu to film in India
Emmy nominated American actress Lucy Liu (Charlie’s Angels) is reportedly arriving in India in the near future for
making a film around the subject of human trafficking.
This will be first directorial venture for Liu, who has acted in few dozen films and television episodes besides
producing few movies. Reportedly set in Mumbai, this short film will star Tannishtha Chatterjee (Brick Lane), who is
said to be very excited about it.
Indo-American statesman Rajan Zed, welcoming the India-trend of world film industry, in a statement in Nevada (USA)
today, said that filmmakers should also explore many finer and deeper things India offered, instead of just focusing on
human trafficking, poverty and crime.
According to reports, Liu’s short, first one to be filmed, will be part of a four-movies-wrapped-in-one project, other
two shorts being directed by Oscar winners Angelina Jolie (Changeling) and Meryl Streep (The Devil Wears Prada). Lucy
Alexis Liu, 41, was born to Taiwanese immigrants in New York (USA).
