Known for using innovative storytelling techniques, Dibakar Banerjee is gearing up for the premiere of 'Shanghai'.

Kalki Koechelin had to go through quite a transformation for her role in 'Shanghai' as director Dibakar Banerjee wanted her to look ugly yet adorable. The brief given by her director was quite simple - 'Look
ugly'. However, it was nothing short of a nightmare to actually realise the filmmaker's vision.

The music of a Dibakar Banerjee film is not something you watch out for because he is known for making gritty and compelling movies. But when you have Emraan Hashmi in the cast, the music can't go wrong.

The movie stars Abhay Deol, Emraan Hashmi, Prosenjit Chatterjee and Kalki Koechlin. Shanghai itself plays a metaphor for progressive change.

Nobody other than Kunal Deshmukh inside the Bhatt camp has shown the will to develop an alternate image for Emraan Hashmi.

The director of 'Shanghai', Dibakar Banerjee was initially reluctant to cast a foreigner in a rustic dance number.

Director Dibakar Banerjee's upcoming political thriller 'Shanghai' has Abhay Deol and Emraan Hashmi in lead.

The music of 'Shanghai' is given by the composer duo of Vishal-Shekhar while Dibakar Banerjee has directed the film.
