Huma Qureshi
Filmmaker Gurinder Chadha will donate the costumes and script of her Huma Qureshi-starrer Viceroy's House to the new Partition museum in Amritsar.
The movie, currently in UK cinemas, is set in the final days of Indian independence in 1947 and traces it to the Partition of the country. It will be released in India in August this year to coincide with the 70th anniversary of India's independence.
"The museum is a befitting tribute to those who suffered in 1947 and are still haunted by the tragedy of Partition," said Chadha at an event organised by the Partition Museum in the UK Parliament complex on Tuesday.
