Rupesh Paul has revealed he is making a movie about missing Malaysia Airlines Flight MH370.

Speaking at this year’s Cannes film festival, the Indian film director told the Hollywood Reporter the drama – titled The Vanishing Act – “will not affect any passengers’ families”.

The search is continuing for the Boeing 777 plane, which disappeared on March 8 with 239 people on board.

The film is expected to be ready for an autumn release date. Rupesh Paul insisted he was not exploiting the ongoing search.

“The controversy will help indirectly, but we are not cashing in on the flight,” he said.

Rupesh Paul added there had been a lot of interest in the film, particularly from Asian markets.

The director is in Cannes to promote several of his films.

Rupesh Paul wrote the screenplay in 20 days based on a Malaysian journalist’s theory about what happened.

The journalist is one of the film’s investors and wants to remain anonymous for now.

The film budget is $3.5 million.
