With a refreshing new story, a coming-of-age film, and a bunch of versatile young ensemble cast, the film Kacchey Limbu has been selected for the 47th Toronto International Film Festival (TIFF).
Radhika Madan’s latest Kacchey Limbu is all set to have its world premiere at the Toronto International Film Festival, which will take place from September 8 to September 28th this year. Radhika Madan's Kacchey Limbu teaser out now. TIFF recently announced the news on its social media platforms by publishing a photo from the film.
Director Shubham Yogi has helmed the film, which follows a sibling duo who end up competing in cricket, alongside handling their parents' pressure, family expectations, self-doubt, and the weight of their aspirations.
Radhika Madan's Kacchey Limbu Teaser Out
As the teaser subtly reveals, Madan plays the role of Aditi, a young girl who finds herself in the middle of solid parental expectations and the fight to pursue her dreams, hounded by self-doubt and societal woes. In what appears to be a take on self-discovery as well, the story seems to be relatable to almost everyone out there. The teaser gives away a significant dialogue and emotion that Madan’s character in the film revolves around- “Jo kabhi nai kiya, usse karne ke liye theek wahi karna padhta hai, jo kabhi nai kiya..”
Writer-Director Shubham Yogi stated that the film’s story is such that it will resonate with today’s youth, especially when it comes to crossroads in life and their goals. He mentioned how the collective goal was to also surface a story revolving around real and heartwarming sibling equations.
