An Hollywood company has announced it has agreed to come aboard to co-produce the independent film, Punjab Tiger, based on the true story of an Indian man, to be played by Prem Singh, who is banned from the sport of boxing because he wouldn't compromise his religious convictions and stood up for his rights.
Prem Singh is also the co-writer of the screenplay along with his partner, Michael Pugliese, who will also play an important role in the movie.
The project will be co-produced by Mass Hysteria Entertainment and Aloe Entertainment.
"Punjab Tiger meets our current mandate to produce films that we believe will attract important stars and has award winning potential. Mary Aloe and I are working on a number of new projects together and I am delighted she asked me to join her as a producer on Punjab," said Daniel Grodnik, CEO of Mass Hysteria Entertainment.
Currently, the plan is to begin pre-production in late May in Canada and to commence principal photography in July or August.
Mass Hysteria Entertainment recently co-financed Daughter Of God under their Remark Pictures label starring Keanu Reeves and Ana De Armas.
