Vinta's magic in tinsel town

Filmmaker Vinta Nanda is all set to direct two new projects titled 'Magic' and 'Tinsel Town'. A year ago, her directorial debut 'White Noise' starring Rahul Bose and Koel Purie received rave reviews and critical acclaim. However the commercial success quotient somehow eluded her.

Vinta, who is simultaneously writing the script of 'Magic' and 'Tinsel Town', plans to roll both the films in the coming year.

'Magic' is on a slightly bigger scale with a mix of established actors and newcomers in the cast, 'Tinsel Town' which revolves around dancers, will feature all newcomers in the ensemble.

While 'Tinsel Town' will be produced by Asad Sharif along with a group of enterprising under-25s namely Marc D'Souza, Debo Kini and Aakash Thakkar, Vinta will co-produce 'Magic'.

Earlier, Vinta has been the force behind some of Indian television's biggest serials and soaps including 'Tara', 'Raahat', 'Rahein', 'Shatranj', 'Umeed', 'Deewar', 'V3 Plus', 'Agnichakra', 'Sansar' , 'Aur Phir Ek Din', 'Papa', 'Kabhi Kabhi', 'Hero Uncle' , 'Café 18', 'La Bellas', 'Sheila', 'Kasbaa' , 'Deewane Toh Deewane Hai' and 'Miilee'.
