Film Heritage Foundation and PVR Inox present Vidhu Vinod Chopra`s films for a multi-city festival

Vidhu Vinod Chopra
Film Heritage Foundation and PVR Inox have joined hands to organise a special film festival to celebrate filmmaker Vidhu Vinod Chopra`s cinema as he completes 45 years in the film industry. This film festival promises to take cinephiles on a memorable journey through Vidhu Vinod Chopra`s remarkable filmography. For younger viewers, this will be an opportunity to watch Chopra`s early films on the big screen for the first time.
The gripping thriller Khamosh, which enjoys a cult following and is not available on any streaming platform, is likely to be a big draw. As will be his first feature film, Sazaye Maut, a noirish thriller that signalled his entry as a filmmaker of great promise. The gangster drama Parinda is one of the early films of the genre, while the musical superhit 1942: A Love Story and the multi-textured Mission Kashmir kickstarted many careers of the film industry. Each film represents a unique facet of Chopra`s storytelling skills. Audiences will also get a glimpse of Chopra`s oeuvre as a producer with Parineeta, Munna Bhai MBBS, Lage Raho Munnabhai and 3 Idiots.
