Almost In Love With Dj MohabbatDirected by Anurag Kashyap, it will have its world premiere at the Marrakech Film Festival.
The 19th edition of the film festival began in Morocco on 11 November and will conclude on 19 November. The film will be presented outside in Marrakech’s Jemaa el Fna Square.
Anurag said he is looking forward to the world premiere of his directorial venture at the festival.
“The story of the film has taken shape over the years with my interactions with my daughter and GenZ, and to realize how our set beliefs and conditioning affect them. To realize that we are the expatriates of the world today (and) that they are also the natives. It feels like a new innings and I am happy that it is starting with this film.
He thanked music composer Amit Trivedi, lyricist Shelly, cinematographer Sylvester Fonseca, production designer Shazia and other members of his crew for their constant support.
Backed by Zee Studios and Anurag’s Good Bad Films, the film will release in India in January 2023.
Zee Studios CBO Shariq Patel said that they are happy with the international recognition their film is getting. “It empowers us, encourages us to explore new dimensions of entertainment. The Marrakech Film Festival is known for accepting great pieces of cinema, and the selection of ‘Almost Pyaar with DJ Mohabbat’ is very special,” said Patel.
Ranjan Singh of Good Bad Films said he was confident that the story of love backed with some exceptional music by Trivedi “will resonate with audiences across the globe”.
