After a big win at the 36th Fajr Film Festival (February 1-11), director Bahram Tavakoli is preparing for his next feature film.
His last film ‘The Lost Strait’ won top prizes of the festival including  awards for the best film, best director and best actor in the leading role as well as technical awards for the best special effects (mechanical), sound mixing and makeup. 
His next film will be funded by cinema producer Saeed Malekan. It is about ‘The Life of Jahan Pahlevan Takhti,’ ILNA reported. 
Tavakoli has recently completed the script of the project. The screenplay will be a dramatic story of Gholam-Reza Takhti (1930-1968), an Iranian Olympic gold-medalist wrestler and Varzesh-e Bastani (traditional sport) hero, popularly nicknamed Jahan Pahlevan (world champion) because of his chivalrous behavior and sportsmanship.
