While making his documentary ‘Surviving Mumbai’, filmmaker Anthony Maras interviewed many of the 26/11 tragedy survivors and that is where the idea of the movie ‘Hotel Mumbai’ came into picture. The unedited version of the interviews have been used to develop and eventually make the movie along with co writer John Colleen.

Hotel Mumbai stars Anupam Kher and Dev Patel in leading roles. The makers stayed for over a month in the Taj Hotel after the attacks to get a better perspective of the tragedy and feel the horror of the event. The film will hit the big screens on November 29th and will be dubbed in Hindi, Tamil and Telugu.
