Such a cute picture." "It's really true friendship, sir, you are always a caretaker," said another person. A post shared by Boman Irani (@boman_irani) Anupam's Tanvi The Great has become one of the most talked-about films this year. The film is special for many reasons--mainly because it marks legendary actor Anupam Kher's return to the director's chair after more than two decades. The cast behind Tanvi The Great also include Pallavi Joshi, debutant Shubhangi Dutt, Jackie Shroff, Arvind Swamy, Iain Glen and Karan Tacker. Speaking with news agency ANI, Anupam recently said, "I am not traditionally a director, but primarily an actor, but the story inspired me. When it reaches the heart of the people, it's really gratifying. The kind of comments we got in Cannes and in London yesterday are fantastic. I wanted to make a film from India for the world, and I think that I have sort of managed to achieve it." Tanvi The Great follows 21-year-old Tanvi Raina, a woman with autism who discovers her late Indian Army officer father's unfulfilled dream--to stand at Siachen, the world's highest battlefield, and salute the Indian flag. Despite societal pushback and institutional barriers against autistic recruits in the military, she becomes determined to fulfil this mission. The film is set to release on July 18.
