Renowned author-storyteller Laksh Maheshwari is making a splash in the film industry with two of his works set to hit the big screen. Although the official announcements are yet to be made, Maheshwari has confirmed that both projects are in the pipeline and will begin production next year. Maheshwari, who recently visited Lucknow, shared the exciting news with caution. His first project is based on his debut book 'The Descendents,' which is part of a trilogy. The production house behind the upcoming film 'Mastii 4' has acquired the rights and is planning a large-scale ₹100-crore venture. The project is currently in the pre-production stage, with the team working on the screenplay and dialogues. Maheshwari's second project is a murder mystery, which has been acquired by Cricket icon Mahendra Singh Dhoni's entertainment company. The film is scheduled to go on floors by mid-2025, and Maheshwari is thrilled about this new chapter in his life. He also mentioned that other stories are under consideration, and fans can expect more exciting news in the future. Maheshwari has also dabbled behind the camera, creating a short film a few years ago. Although he doesn't rule out the possibility of directing a full-fledged project in the future, he acknowledges that he needs to learn the craft. He's open to getting trained under an expert director and is looking forward to exploring new opportunities. Maheshwari's journey is a testament to the power of adapting to new situations. He's had 12 different professions, including investment banking, music, and opening restaurants. He started writing during the pandemic and discovered his passion for storytelling. Now, he's embracing the unknown and keeping himself open to possibilities. Maheshwari has a special connection to Lucknow, having visited the city four times in the past year. He's drawn to the people, hospitality, and food, and hopes to continue building this connection in the future. His recent performance at the Lucknow Short Film Festival was a testament to his growing presence in the city.
