Richa Chadha and Ali Fazal’s debut venture as producers, 'Girls Will Be Girls', continues to make waves internationally, sweeping multiple awards at the prestigious MAMI Mumbai Film Festival 2024. Directed by Shuchi Talati, the film, already celebrated on the global stage with accolades from festivals like Sundance, added four more honours to its roster at MAMI: the Films Critics Guild Sensitivity Award, the Young Critics Choice Award, Jury Special Mention in the South Asian Film Category, and the Netpac Award.
Starring Kani Kusruti, Preeti Panigrahi, Kesav Benoy Kiron, and Jitin Gulati, 'Girls Will Be Girls' offers a deeply moving portrayal of nuanced characters and sensitive storytelling. The narrative follows a sixteen-year-old girl at a boarding school in the Himalayas, exploring desire and romance for the first time, in a compelling coming-of-age journey. Produced under Chadha and Fazal’s banner Pushing Buttons Studios, in collaboration with Blink Digital and Dolce Vita Films, the film has struck a chord with audiences and critics alike.
