Filmmaker Shakun Batra turned executive producer for Netflix's documentary titled Searching For Sheela. It revolved around Osho Rajneesh's controversial ex-secretary and spokeswoman of the Rajneesh movement, Ma Anand Sheela. Now, it is time to meet the late Godman's first aide Ma Yoga Laxmi. Veteran actor Gulshan Grover's son Sanjay Grover will be producing a series on her. Talking to a leading daily, Gulshan, a proud father, revealed that Sanjay, who was based in California, is back in Mumbai to settle down.
"I cannot describe how happy I am. I cannot describe how proud I am feeling. My son is on the threshold of making a mega web series. Sanjay was working in MGM Studios (California) at a post which has given him a wide experience of creativity, finance, and distribution. He was very happy there, but in these times of COVID I had to do a sort of emotional blackmail. But it's so good to have him here. He is my information about cinema. He reads so much and has always kept himself abreast of world cinema. I see him making some very big and talked-about projects in future," Gulshan said.
Sanjay will co-produce the series with Rahul Mittra, who bankrolled films like Sahib Biwi Gangster. Apart from them, the Osho World Foundation will be producing the series. "Atul Anand of Osho World Foundation was my classmate. He had sent us Rashid Maxwell’s book The Only Life: Osho, Laxmi And A Journey Of The Heart, which fascinated Rahul and Sanjay both. They gel well with each other. Soon, Rahul bought the rights of the book," Gulshan shared.
