Sounds strange, doesn’t it? Well, actually it’s not that strange. Director Shailendra Pandey is making a film titled JD. It revolves around the life of a working journalist. In order to lend truthfulness to the plot, he has signed up real life media persons to play some important parts in the movie. They range from editors and reporters to photo journalists.

Wow! Being a journalist, can’t wait to see that one. By the way, the title of the film JD does not refer to the journalistic discount that we get for air travel.
