We are excited to bring 'Jungle Cry' to the audience and share with them the journey of these heroes who made a mark in the sporting history of India - but were never spoken about."The film also stars Emily Shah, who plays Roshni Thakkar, a physiotherapist. She was immediately drawn to the story when she heard it for the first time. Her part in the film is integral to the script as it brings in a different perspective.She said, "Even though the film is about the incredibly inspiring journey about the team, the institute and the coaches bring so much light and love to the movie. My character brings in the flair and viewpoint of a 'woman in sport'. I am eager to learn how the audience connects with my role."Produced by Prashant Shah under the banner of Bollywood Hollywood Productions, and directed by Sagar Ballary, 'Jungle Cry' will release on Lionsgate Play on June 3.Disclaimer: This post has been auto-published from an agency feed without any modifications to the text and has not been reviewed by an editor
