India’s most iconic pulp fiction author finds a new
cinematic life as Almighty Motion Picture adapts eight of his most celebrated
novels.
In a landmark collaboration, Almighty Motion
Picture has acquired the audio-visual rights to eight blockbuster novels by Ved
Prakash Sharma—the legendary author hailed as the father of Indian pulp
fiction. With a readership that spans generations and a publishing record of
crores of copies sold, Sharma’s stories have captivated millions with their
irresistible blend of thrill, drama, and mass appeal.
The titles acquired include *Superstar, Paintra,
Dahej Mai Revolver, Jadu Bhara Jaal,* and the cult trilogy— *Qatil Ho To Aisa,
Shakahari Khanjar, Madari—along with Naseeb Mera Dushman.* These books, revered
for their gripping plots and unforgettable characters, are now set to find new
life on screen through high-octane cinematic adaptations.
“This is not just an acquisition—it’s a
tribute. Ved Prakash Sharma ji is one of the most iconic storytellers India has
ever seen. His stories have shaped popular literature in our country. To bring
them to screen is both a dream and a deep responsibility. We are grateful to
Shagun Sharma and Madhu Sharma ji for trusting us with this legacy,” said
Prabhleen Sandhu, Founder, Almighty Motion Picture.
“It’s an emotional moment for our family and for
fans of my father’s work. Watching his stories find new form through cinema is
a celebration of his legacy. Teaming up with Almighty Motion Picture ensures
these adaptations will be handled with creativity and care,” said Shagun
Sharma, Co-Founder, Tulsi Paper Books.
With this ambitious slate, Almighty Motion Picture
aims to reintroduce Sharma’s timeless stories to a new generation—bridging the
nostalgia of India’s pulp era with the power of modern storytelling. The screen
is now set for gritty action, layered drama, and enduring characters born from
the golden age of Indian popular fiction.
