Bandra Film Festival will be showcasing the all-time entertainer ‘Loins of Punjab’ starring Shabana Azmi, Ajay Naidu, Ayesha Dharker and Kunal Roy Kapur, and directed by the late Manish Acharya.
A digital film festival presented by FilmKaravan, in collaboration with YouTube, has, so far, showcased feature films, documentaries and various short-films. ‘Loins of Punjab’ is a 1-hour-26-minute-long feature film set around an ‘Indian Idol’-inspired Hindi singing reality contest in New Jersey with seven strangers.
This comic caper has garnered an iconic status over the years. The contestants include a ruthless philanthropist, a bhangra rapper, a young prodigy with an overprotective family, a reckless actor, a lovelorn businessman, and an entrepreneurial yogi. It’s all about backstage intrigues abound as the competitors battle onstage and behind-the-scenes.
“We are really excited to curate the classic comic caper ‘Loins of Punjab’ at the festival. It is a 2007 release but this film feels fresh even today,” said programmer Andrea Manath. From Aamir Khan’s ‘Raakh’ to Ranbir Kapoor’s ‘Karma’, the festival has been entertaining the audiences with its unique line-ups.
