The Walk will be shot once the lockdown is lifted and the shoots resume. Rahul Roy stated, “I have roped in Nitin Gupta, who directed me in Death Of An Ambassador, to helm this project. The Walk is a story of human trial and the heart-wrenching situation that migrant workers are facing. It revolves around two men - Roshan and Azaan - and their journey from Mumbai to Uttar Pradesh. I play Roshan in the film.” View this post on Instagram A post shared by Rahul Roy (@officialrahulroy) on May 29, 2020 at 3:18am PDT Rahul Roy added, “The coronavirus pandemic has put us in an unprecedented situation for which nobody was prepared. While many of us are in the comfort of our homes, it’s the migrant workers who are suffering the most. Their survival depends on their daily earnings. Now, the pandemic has taken that away from them. The Walk shows how hardship and pain are masked by the simplicity of life and how Roshan and Azaan get home. Though the film focuses on their journey, through their eyes, you get a glimpse of the life of all migrant workers, who are trying to return to the sanctuary of their home.” ALSO READ: Ajay Devgn Lauds Sonu Sood's 'exemplary' Work For Stranded Migrant Workers Rahul Roy hopes that the film will serve as an eye-opener and help in tackling such a calamity, should we face it again. “Our endeavour is to tell a beautiful story and remember this time - something that we never thought we would see in this lifetime. We hope that through our compelling storytelling, we touch many hearts and are better prepared for any such situation the next time,” Rahul Roy stated before concluding.
