While the World Film Festival of Bangkok will be held from December 2 to December 11, the 27th International Film Festival of Kerala will take place from December 9 to December 16 in Thiruvananthapuram.

I am thrilled that it has been selected at the World Film Festivals of Bangkok and IFFK. It’s a film that is very close to my heart and I can’t wait for the audience to see it.”

‘Kacchey Limbu’ is a heart-warming sibling drama that tells the story of Aditi, a young girl who is in the race of fulfilling dreams imposed on her by everyone.

After its successful showcase at TIFF, I feel blessed and grateful that the film continues to find a platform at prestigious festivals like Bangkok and IFFK film festivals. As a debutant filmmaker, I couldn’t have asked for a better start”.
