Local Kung Fu

We all remember how Jackie Chan explored comedy within the action genre and went on to win hearts. A similar feat is set to be accomplished with India’s own full-blown martial arts comedy in the form of Kenny Basumatary’s Assamese feature film Local Kung Fu.

The film boasts of some fabulously choreographed action sequences amidst rip-roaring humour. Surprisingly, this film is one of the most inexpensive action films ever made, with a budget less than a lakh. Basumatary proves that fancy budgets and digital trickery is not necessary to pull off kick-ass action sequences.

What’s more, the team neither had a great budget nor the need to use trickery-like wires etc to execute their fights. All the fighters of Local Kung Fu are genuine martial artistes who’ve trained for several years.

Kenny Basumatary has not only written and directed the film, but also plays the main protagonist along with other cast comprising Utkal Hazowary, Sangeeta Nair, Bonny Deori, Bibhash Sinha, Ronnie Deori, Johny Deori and AS Deori.

Come 27 September, Local Kung Fu will release in seven prominent cities in the country with English subtitles. It is to be screened by PVR in Mumbai, Delhi, Pune, Kolkata, Bengaluru, Ahmedabad and Chennai besides an independent release in Assam.
