"Film India Lockdown is all set to go on floor next week. Here's a teaser poster. Give your love," Bhandarkar wrote on Twitter.

The poster shows how lockdown brought life to a standstill, through an image of a huge lock and several visuals of individuals from different parts of society.

Bhandarkar is known for directing films such as Chandni Bar, Page 3, Traffic Signal and Fashion. However, his last Bollywood outings, Calendar Girls and Indu Sarkar crashed at the box office.
