‘City Of Dreams’ Helmer Mohit Ramchandani To Direct Survival Thriller ‘Asphyxia’ For Capstone Studios


Mohit Ramchandani is set to direct 'Asphyxia,' a survival thriller for Capstone Studios marking his follow-up to this year's 'City of Dreams.'

In a statement to Deadline on the origins of the project, Ramchandani shared, “I suffered a terrible personal loss two years ago and creating the character of an emotionally avoidant being, who is forced through circumstance to the recesses of her psyche, where choosing vulnerability over intellect sets her free, provided me with the elixir of forgiveness that was crucial for my own healing. Added Lowry, “After watching Mo’s visionary filmmaking in his directorial debut “City of Dreams” and listening to his take for Asphyxia, it was clear to me that he is going to deliver something truly groundbreaking in an oversaturated genre.” Starring Alfredo Castro, Jason Patric and Golden Globe nominee Diego Calva, the film’s EPs include Tony Robbins, five-time Latin Grammy-winning singer Luis Fonsi, singer-song-writer Linda Perry, Academy Award winner Michael Phillips ( The Sting, Taxi Driver) and Roma Oscar nom Yalitza Aparicio.
