‘Salaam Venky’ is a celebration of life: Kajol

Mumbai, Nov 28 (PTI) Fear should not override the spirit of celebrating life, says Kajol about her upcoming feature “Salaam Venky”, a film she initially was unsure about becoming a part of.

Helmed by actor-director Revathy, the movie is inspired by the true story of the young chess player Kolavennu Venkatesh, who had Duchenne muscular dystrophy (DMD). He died in 2004.

Kajol, who is a mother of two, said working on "Salaam Venky" drew so much out of her that she shot the majority of the scenes without glycerine.
