Shikara

Vidhu Vinod Chopra's 'Shikara' is all set to hit the theatres this Friday. Ahead of its release, the makers held a star-studded evening with the pool of talent recently in the city.  From the lead actors, Adil Khan, Sadia, writer Abhijat Joshi, filmmaker Vidhu Vinod Chopra and Anupama Chopra, the event saw the presence of who’s who of the industry. Actress Manisha Koirala from the director's classic cult 1942: A Love Story to Shikara also graced this special evening.

The film has already garnered immense appreciation from the critics as well as the audience for its thrilling storyline. Conveying the untold narrative of Kashmiri Pandits 'Shikara' is grabbing all the attention for its gripping narrative that comes straight out of the books of history.

The audience that was present at the screening didn't just like the movie but gave it a standing ovation to Vidhu Vinod Chopra after the movie ended.

Some time back, the makers had organized special previews of the movie for Kashmiri Pandits in Mumbai where people from Pune and Mumbai showed up and also in Delhi where people from Kashmir were also present.

Recently, Vidhu Vinod Chopra and Abhijat Joshi were honored at a prominent youth summit in Bangalore. The thunderous response from the youth is proof that even the young audience are also all excited about the much-anticipated film.

Shikara is being hailed as an important movie and is also the most awaited. Inspired by Vidhu Vinod Chopra's own life and a tribute by the director to his mother, ‘Shikara’ brings back the untold story of Kashmiri pandits from the valley of 1990 and has 40,000 real migrants act in the film.

The film is all set to be released on 7th February 2020. Presented by Fox Star Studios. Produced by Vinod Chopra Productions and co-produced by Fox star studios.
