MUMBAI: Udaan producer Sanjay Singh has roped in legendary Hollywood artiste Harvey Keitel for his next film Against Itself to be directed by National Award winner Kranti Kanade.

The film that will narrate the story of a secular school master struggling against anti-Gandhian forces, will have Keitel essay the pivotal role.
 
Singh, whose Udaan got the honour of being screened at the prestigious Cannes Film Festival and also boasts of a long list of 14 international and Indian awards including the Filmfare, is of the belief that Against Itself has a huge international potential and with Keital in the lead, he aims to reach both Indian and global audiences.

Keital is known for his performances in some best-known Hollywood films like Quentin Tarantino‘s Reservoir Dogs and Pulp Fiction, Jane Campion‘s The Piano and Holy Smoke, Martin Scorsese‘s Mean Streets, Who‘s That Knocking At My Door and Taxi Driver, Ridley Scott‘s The Duellists and Thelma and Louise.
