The film has its world premiere at the International Film Festival Rotterdam’s Focus: The Shape of Things to Come? strand that asks if the institutional success of what used to be right-wing Hindu nationalist groups but are now mainstream, and the persecution of dissenting voices, is a sign of the shape of things to come.at South Asia’s top film market, Film Bazaar, in 2021, and participated in the Film Bazaar Goes to Cannes initiative at the Marche du Film in 2022.
“Post 2014 in India, when a right-wing government came into power with a huge majority, I saw many of my friends and people I know become too passionate about their politics.

Nalawade’s narrative has plenty of nuance. The beating heart of the film is the three leads, Marathi-speaking Raghavendra , Kannada-speaking Sachin and Muslim single mother Parveen , who share a triangular friendship akin to François Truffaut’s “Jules et Jim” or Sudhir Mishra’s “Hazaaron Khwaishein Aisi.”
