She will be in town on November 16 and the shoot will happen the following day. The commercial is that of a tea brand for which Mary Kom is the brand ambassador.” Giving an insight into the commercial, Riingo added, “The ad will portray her as a mother, a wife, a world boxing champion and above all, an Indian.
The punchline goes — stronger the tea, stronger the person. The ad will have an international look and feel to it. The commercial is meant to celebrate Mary Kom as a person. It shows that there is a rebel in each of us and with a little bit of exploring, one can strive to become a champion. The script of the commercial is based on rebel poet Md Iqbal’s philosophy of life.”
Riingo, who is busy with the post production of his November release,Na Hanyate, is already planning his next — a thriller. “The film is based on a real-life incident and shows what happens when an Indian couple gets murdered on their honeymoon in South Africa. The cast includes Roopa Ganguly, Debshankar Haldar and Sayoni,” informed the director.
