Rohit Saraf celebrates one-year anniversary of Ludo

Ludo was a true-blue Diwali treat for fans last year. Starring a power-packed ensemble cast including the national heartthrob Rohit Saraf, the movie made waves for its strong storyline and tight plot. Today marks the film’s one year anniversary and what a year it has been indeed! The movie is still garnering eyeballs on Netflix with a strong word of mouth.

Anurag Basu’s black comedy crime directorial was at its core, a metaphorical story about life and its series of random events culminating into one final outcome. The movie drew parallels between the game of Ludo and the game of life. Rohit Saraf as Rahul Awasthi, together with Sheeja Thomas (Pearl Maaney), formed the blue side of the game.

The movie opened to rave reviews and its ensemble cast headlined by Rohit Saraf, Abhishek Bachchan, Aditya Roy Kapur, Rajkummar Rao, Sanya Malhotra, Pearle Maaney, Pankaj Tripathi, Fatima Sana Shaikh, Shalini Vatsa and Inayat Varma was lauded for their performances by the critics and audience alike.

Speaking about the movie completing a year, Rohit Saraf said, “I will always consider Ludo as a film that made me who I am today. It was a wonderful experience sharing the stage with some of my most favourite actors. I’m so thankful for all the love and respect we have received for Ludo.”

Produced by Bhushan Kumar, Divya Khosla Kumar, Krishan Kumar and Anurag Basu under the banner of T-Series, the movie was also written by Anurag Basu.
