Open Chest Interview with The Breakaway

Jul 16, 2013

We all know that the ongoing whirlwind of technological advancement is bringing with it, instant access to information globally, thus lending great dividends to the narrowing of the ages-old gap of cultural ignorance and shifting the dynamic to an aggressive intercultural melting pot of innovative sorts. This is due also in part to the economic shift of power from the west to the east. Since 2009, people in the west have since wanted to know more and more about what’s going on in the east, especially as it relates to fashion, entertainment and business, such industries that have soared in the past decade. It’s not surprising then that what was initiated by the early 1990’s array of independent South Asian crossover films like Bend It Like Beckham, Fire and Monsoon Wedding, there would be a time when South Asian crossover films would come of age and cross the iron line from niche to mass. A prime example of this is the film Breakaway which saw its world première at the Toronto International Film Festival this past September and formally released on the theatre circuit on September 30. Distributed by Alliance Atlantis, this 90-minute bicultural romantic comedy is infused with all the components you’d expect from a super smash hit…

A tremendous global & eclectic principle cast: Thespians, Anupam Kher & Rob Lowe; well-known comedic actors, Russell Peters, Gurpreet ‘Ghuggi’ Singh and Noureen DeWulf; beauty, Camilla Belle and boy-next-door, newcomer, Vinay Virmani… a stellar support cast: Akshay Kumar, Drake and Ludacris…an award-winning director: Robert Lieberman… a pioneering producer: Ajay Virmani…a kicking soundtrack with electric music videos… movie merchandise and paraphernalia…AND mass distribution to boot!

You can imagine my excitement when I got the opportunity to interview some of the cast.
