Paramount to release Kapur's Elizabeth

Paramount Films of India announced the Indian release of Shekhar Kapur's Elizabeth-The Golden Age. The film stars casts Cate Blanchett, Geofrey Rush and Clive Owen and has music by ace Indian music director A R Rahman.

Talking about this mythological film based on interesting bits from history, director Kapur says, "It is very important to acknowledge that it's all about interpretations. History is an interpretation of an interpretation. This goes on. I made this film for varied reasons and I believe in it completely."
Paramount Films, India general manager Sarabjit Singh adds, "The film recites the tale of the story of one woman's crusade to control love, crush enemies and secure her position as a beloved icon of western world."
The Indian touch to the music will be evident, thanks to Rahman. The musician, who has been churning out enigmatic creations for period films, has something new to offer this time.
