 Now, Sammir I. Patel is all geared to direct a black comedy film, ‘Kabar Se Pehle Khabar’ which has some big names from the film industry as lead actors. Speaking about the film, Patel says, “I cannot tell you much about this film. But I can assure you that it is an out-out comedy which will surely take the viewers on a roller-coaster ride that will touch the audience deep,a thought provoking story with a message that death is not the final destination but the beginning of a new horizon.The film is being backed by a big corporate house”

Recently Sammir had released a romantic comedy film ‘Yours Truly Roohani’ on digital platforms. The 42-minute is also being sent to all international film festivals. It had Rishi Saxena and Vibha Anand in the lead. This entire film had been shot in a day inclusive of a song at one location which is record in itself. The story revolves around a boyfriend who is eagerly waiting for his lady love who is thinking of committing many leisurely acts. In the bargain he gobbles some medicines to give him the strength and stamina. Instead of his girl friend a female insurance agent lands up at his house. He then tries to develop a relationship with the agent and that is what this film is all about.

On quizzing about releasing this film in theaters, to which Sammir adds, “The film has been made for digital release platforms. These days it is difficult to release a small film. To get the proper chain of all India distributor network is quiet difficult. Good films do not get appropriate cinemas,show timings and that breaks it at the box office window collections. I strongly believe that our producers’ and distributors’ associations should sit down together and resolve these issues. Today small producers are confounded but the producers, its association and the government is turning a blind eye to their problems. ”
