Jio MAMI 20th Mumbai Film Festival - Dimensions Mumbai - Jury Citation
"The jury is delighted to unanimously present the Golden Gateway Award to a film that throbs with a dilemma of choosing between the snares of maximum city, and the pull of love. A deeply moving story evoked through its lyrical writing, inventive sound design and the speaking eyes of its young protagonists. The film suggests that in the wilderness of the megacity, the consolation and refuge is love. We commend how it employs the symphonic range of cinematic tools to craft a love poem to this 'great, ruined metropolis' as Salman Rushdie called Mumbai"
Our film has also been showcased on Film Companion & White Wall Screenings
