Madhu Mantena to produce Doga

Madhu Mantena

Film-maker Anurag Kashyap had harboured the dream of making a movie on the comic character, Doga, since the time Dev.D released. Now, it seems the film will soon become a reality.
Madhu Mantena of Phantom Films has bought the rights of the book. “There’s still time for us to go on the floors, but in all probability, it would happen by early next year,” says Mantena, who would work closely with Manish Gupta and Sanjay Gupta of Raj Comics and also explore various others possibilities of taking the comic book character beyond films.
“We may make it a franchise based on the reaction we get for the first film,” says Mantena.
