Vishal Bhardwaj's son to show film at NFDC film bazaar Press Trust of India
Vishal Bhardwaj's son Aasmaan is all set to showcase his short film "The Theif", based on Ruskin Bond's short story, at NFDC Film Bazaar. Starring Chandan Roy Sanyal, the film is among the 38 shorts in the Viewing Room at the 10th edition of the event, to be held at Marriott Goa from November 20-24, 2016.
This year 202 films (maximum number so far) will be screened in Viewing Room, which includes 38 shorts and 164-feature length films (131 fiction features and 33 documentaries). Based on a short story by Ruskin Bond, the film is about a boy who cares for nothing and finally finds someone who changes that. Vishal, who is an admirer of Ruskin Bond, has previously adapted the writer's stories into movies like "Blue Umbrella" and "7Khoon Maaf". "I had no idea that my father had submitted the film to the viewing room of the film bazaar so I'm just glad about that, and I hope more people can watch the film!," Aasmaan, who is currently doing a screenwriting course at School of Visual Arts in New York, said in a statement. His previous shorts include "The Identities" and "Murder on the Deccan Express". (This story has not been edited by Business Standard staff and is auto-generated from a syndicated feed.)
