American actor Sir Ian McKellen, who is popularly known for his roles of Gandalf in The Lord of the Rings series and Magneto in the X-Men movies, is all set to visit India for conversation with Bollywood’s perfectionist Aamir Khan on Shakespeare’s legacy and world cinema at large. The two will mark the 400th anniversary of Shakespeare’s death which was on May 4.
The conversation is slated for May 23 in Mumbai, in presence of a large audience consisting of cinema enthusiasts and will mark the debut outing of MAMI Film Club.
In its 17 year history, MAMI will, for the first time, be opening its doors for a year-long engagement with its patrons.
“Sir Ian McKellen in conversation with Aamir Khan is a Shakespeare lover’s dream and a cinema lover’s dream. We would like to thank our partners -the British Film Institute, British Council, GREAT, NCPA, Fountainhead and BookMyShow – for making this possible.” Anupama Chopra, Director, MAMI said.
