Ananth Mahadevan’s The Storyteller, adapted from Satyajit Ray’s short story, to vie for Kim Jiseok Award at Busan film fest

A still from The Storyteller
In Satyajit Ray’s short story Golpo Boliye Tarini Khuro, director Ananth Mahadevan found the perfect source material for The Storyteller. Add stellar actors Paresh Rawal, Revathy, Adil Hussain and Tannishtha Chatterjee to the mix, and it’s hardly surprising that Mahadevan’s film has been selected to compete for the Kim Jiseok Award at the ongoing Busan International Film Festival. “There aren’t enough words to express [my joy]. The film’s selection is a validation that what my entire team and I set out to make has been worth it,” beams the actor-director.
