J.U.D.E - NOLLYWOOD MEETS BOLLYWOOD

In a long overdue collaboration, the two biggest film industries in the world (Nollywood and Bollywood) have combined forces to produce a one-of-a-kind movie. The movie, titled J.U.D.E was directed by Chukwuma Osakwe, with Parveen Kurma, and Gbenga Adesanya as assistant directors.
Nollywood veterans Chief Remy Ohajianya and Tina Mba lead a cast of younger Nollywood actors and their Bollywood counterparts to deliver a memorable performance. Some of the other actors, who appear in the movie include Daniel Lloyd (lead actor), Lovina Qureshi (lead actress), Ani Iyoho, Abhey Attri, and Uche Nwaezeapu (Winner, GUS 6). The movie combines the best of Nollywood and Bollywood, to deliver an educative and entertaining production. Don't miss it when it comes to a cinema near you - this is pure entertainment. 

The Story
Set in Lagos (Nigeria) and Chandigarh city in Punjab (India), the story is about Jude, an advertising executive who ventures into film making as a possible escape from the issues he constantly has at his work place. Little did he know that the road to redemption is a much longer route, laced with thorns. The movie pegs the challenges that young people encounter in emerging economies and what two nations could have possibly worked better in the plot than Nigeria and India. Issues of visa denials by world powers like the United States and United Kingdom are just some of the challenges that surface in the story as the plot thickens. Other conflicts like love, race, religion, class are also tackled in the movie. As funny as it might seem, language also gives one something to think about in the film.
