MUMBAI: Before he could expire, Satyadev Dubey was helming a Marathi film about landsharks and an old-age home inspired by Chandrashekhar Phansalkar’s play Ram Naam Satya Hai.

But he couldn’t complete the project. After his demise on 25 December, his friends from the industry have come together to complete the film.

“The film is ready. Dubey wanted to start dubbing. But one fine day, he decided to make radical changes. We had some conversations about the changes, but he never made notes of his ideas," said Dubey’s close associate Sunil Shanbag in a statement.

The film is a story about builders who are threatening to take over an old- age home.

Practically, everybody who Dubey was close to like Sonali Kulkarni, Makrand Deshpande, Akash Khurana, Shishir Sharma, Suhas Joshi, Ashish Mehta and even some of his friends from the MIG club have contributed to the making of the project.

Apart from the actors, various people from the theatre and film fraternity pitched in to support his film.
