An upcoming Indian political crime drama film that stars Arjun Rampal, who also co-wrote the film, portraying gangster-turned-politician Arun Gawli. Our Approach for the Daddy’s visual communications was inspired by original existing mugshots/images that portrayed the rawness and unfiltered lifestyle that was a huge part of the original protagonist’s life. A lot of the images provided gave us hints and ideas of the man behind the inspiration of this movie. Taking the lead role as Arun Gawli, Arjun Rampal makes up for a stellar performance.
Design System
We wanted to build a visual language that maintained a sense of straightforwardness that portrayed the lifestyle of the former don in a way that the visual elements does not overpower the weight of the Character but rather lets it plainly speak for itself. Our design team came up with a visual identity that looks simple yet edgy by partly blending elements of original found documents/images of the running Gawli Case.
All images were treated to give a certain grittiness that compliment the times and situations that the movie is based around.
