So happy to share that my first as a Producer, 'Gudgudi', a short film by Abhiroop Basu, has been selected for the Oscar qualifying Odense Film Festival 2024. It's among 52 fiction films in the International Competition category.
In the violent clash of ideologies, women and children often pay the highest price. The film exposes this scar on our souls through the eyes of survivors.
When I read the script, my immediate response was that this must be made and I am so glad that we have completed the script to screen journey.
Congratulations to the whole team and supporters who believe in the film.
