Choreographer Bosco Martis of Bosco–Caesar fame is all set to make his directorial debut with a movie titled Rocket Gang. Well, it will be a dance horror comedy and with Bosco directing the film, we can surely expect some amazing choreography in it.

Bosco took to Instagram to share the motion poster of the film, he posted, “It’s a proud moment for a son to make his parents proud! Dad you will be missed but Im sure your responsible in making this happen from up there ❤️. And mom your prayers have just made all of this possible.

Well, the most interesting part about the movie is that it will be the first Bollywood film to be shot using a real-time virtual reality technique. While talking to Mid-day about the technique, Bosco stated, “We need to start shooting soon because the film has kids [as the principal cast] and if we wait too long, they won't look the part. An international team specialising in visual effects gave us a presentation about virtual reality that Zee Studios [producer] and I were kicked about. The process will save us time. Earlier, the actors were to perform against a chroma set. But with the VR headset, I can visualise the scene beforehand. After the shot, the actors too can see how the sequence looks, which will help improve their performance.”

Rocket Gang stars Aditya Seal and Nikita Dutta in the lead roles. The shooting of the film will kickstart in a few months.

I’m Mareyah, a sustainability strategist and passionate home cook, exploring the links between climate, culture and food. Drawing on my Pakistani heritage, I champion the value of traditional knowledge and everyday cooking as a powerful - yet often overlooked - tool for climate action. My work focuses on making sustainability accessible by celebrating the flavours, stories and practices that have been passed down through generations.

As someone who grew up surrounded by the flavours and stories of my Pakistani heritage, food has always been more than nourishment - it’s about connections, culture and memory. It’s one of the only things that unites us all. We cook it, eat it and talk about it every day, even if our ingredients and traditions differ. We live in a world where climate change is a looming threat, and we’re constantly seeing images of crises and mentions of highly technical or political answers. But, what if one of the solutions was closer to home?
