Bhopal: Prayer For Rain

Kal Penn, Mischa Barton, and Martin Sheen star in the upcoming historical drama Bhopal: Prayer For Rain.

The film follows multiple characters' lives and dilemmas in the months leading to the 1984 Union Carbide industrial disaster in Bhopal, India. This was the biggest industrial disaster in human history that killed around 8,000 people in roughly two weeks starting the night of December 3 1984.

We think, if done right, this film could be a biggie. And we would just LOOOVVE to see a stoner-comedian like Kal Penn get some critical acclaim. You see? It doesn't rot your brain.


Filming has completed, but the release date has yet to be reported. With the hype of Slumdog Millionnaire, we're sure people will want to see this film as well. Indian cinema is going mainstream Hollywood, and we love it!
