Phas Gaye Re Obama was Revel Films' first venture into the main market of Indian cinema. Directed by Subhash Kapoor and starring stalwarts like Neha Dhupia, Rajat Kapoor, Sanjay Mishra, Manu Rishi Chadda, Amole Gupte, this film was appreciated by audiences and critics alike.[1] This debut mass venture was rated 4 stars on average by most reviewers. A satire on the lines of American inflation, and the ambitions of small-town thugs and a bandit queen, Phas Gaye Re Obama was a laughter-riot.[2]

Upcoming projects undertaken by Revel Films include ‘Saare Jahaan Se Mehnga’, a film by Anshul Sharma starring Sanjai Mishra, Zakir Hussain, Vishwa Mohan Badola, Sitaram Panchal, Pragati Pandey, Paritosh Sand, Ranjan Chhabra, Disha Pandey and Pramod Pathak. Saare Jahaan Se Mehnga is a satirical take on menghai.
