Renowned director Ram Gopal Varma (RGV) is officially returning to the crime thriller genre with his new project, Police Company. The film went on floors today, marking a major return for the filmmaker into the world of mainstream Hindi cinema and Mumbai’s underworld—a subject he previously explored in acclaimed films like Satya, Company, and D Company.
Two Parts Shot Back-to-Back for a 2027 Release
The latest update confirms that Police Company will be made into a two-part franchise.
- Production Strategy: Both parts will be shot back-to-back.
- Release Schedule: The makers plan to release both movies within a few months of each other in 2027.
- Producer: The project is backed by T-Series.
Story and Real-Life Inspiration
The film focuses on the real-life Mumbai Police encounter squad and their role in fighting organized crime in the city.
- The Lead Role: Actor Harshvardhan Rane stars as the lead character, playing a role inspired by the real-life former Mumbai Police encounter specialist Daya Nayak.
- Core Theme: RGV explained that the film explores the extreme power granted to police officers who are forced to make immediate life-and-death decisions.
- A Deeper Look: The director feels Police Company will take a much deeper and detailed look into encounter policing than his earlier produced film, Ab Tak Chhappan.
