Featuring a cast of three of the best in the biz, we are talking Divya Dutta, Manoj Bajpayee, and Boman Irani, Last Man in Tower certainly is a film to watch out for! Based on Aravind Adiga’s bestselling novel Last Man in Tower, directed by Ben Rekhi and produced by Rana Daggubati, it is a sharp and unsettling story about ambition, morality, friendship, and the dangerous lengths ordinary people can go to when their dreams have a price.
The director said in Variety, “It’s been a deeply fulfilling experience bringing Last Man in Tower to life with an incredible team top to bottom, from Rana Daggubati producing to Sooni Taraporevala scripting, all based on Aravind Adiga’s incredible book. The most rewarding part has been witnessing the power of Manoj and Boman – two giants of cinema – working together for the first time in this film. Divya brings an incredible depth and emotional strength to the ensemble, and the combination of these three actors makes the world of the film particularly special. ‘Last Man in Tower’ is an urgent story about holding onto community and family through turbulent times… a story that has only become more relevant with time.”
Rana Daggubati added: “ Last Man in Tower is a deeply human story. What drew us to it was how naturally it finds something universal in the lives of a very specific group of people. There is something very compelling about the way it explores the choices we make and the things we hold on to. The entire ensemble of cast led by Manoj, Divya, and Boman bring an incredible depth to their characters.”
Divya Dutta says, “After having worked with my dear friend, the brilliant Manoj in three films, and not having shared screen space in any of them, this is the first time when we come together, and what a face-off it is!! Cherish it…and an equal joy working with the amazing Boman Irani! An absolute delight to have none other than the awesome Rana Daggubati produce this beautiful film directed with great sensitivity by Ben Rekhi!”
