Imtiaz Ali’s Highway registered a housefull in Screen 5 at PVR. Some gems from international cinema, too, were appreciated at the event. From a Russian-Lithuanian film, The Gambler, that kickstarted the fest to the Thai movie, The Last Executioner, the overall response was impressive. Among Hindi mainstream films, Sanjay Puran Singh’s Lahore paid homage to late actor
