Ali Fazal and Richa Chadha’s “Girls Will Be Girls” Triumphs at Sundance Film Festival 2024

In a momentous victory for Indian cinema, actors Ali Fazal and Richa Chadha achieved dual triumphs at the prestigious Sundance Film Festival 2024 for their home production, "Girls Will Be Girls."

The film not only secured the Audience Award in the World Dramatic Entry category but also earned a Special Jury Award for lead actress Preeti Panigrahi, adding to the accolades of this Indo-French-USA-Norway production venture.

"Girls Will Be Girls" is a collaborative effort, backed by the creative minds of Richa Chadha, Claire Chassagne, Shuchi Talati, Alex C. Lo, Ali Fazal, Dooj Ramchandani, and Rikki Aggarwal. The film, written and directed by debutant Shuchi Talati, boasts a stellar cast featuring Preeti Panigrahi, Kani Kusruti, and Kesav Binoy Kiron.

Ali Fazal shared back to back stories on his social media profile sharing the news about the win.

Debutant director Shuchi Talati has crafted a remarkable coming-of-age film that resonated with both the audience and critics alike at one of the world's largest film festivals. "Girls Will Be Girls" explores the themes of angst and desire against the backdrop of a school drama set in the Himalayan foothills.

The narrative delves into the challenges faced by its 16-year-old protagonist, Mira, navigating the complex landscape of a draconian Indian boarding school that stifles the expression and understanding of burgeoning sexuality.
