Farhan Akhtar-Ritesh Sidhwani backed Boong to premiere at 49th Toronto International Film Festival

Excel Entertainment along with Chalkboard Entertainment and Suitable Pictures has achieved another remarkable milestone with Boong being selected for the Toronto International Film Festival (TIFF).

Boong follows Boong, a young boy from the valley of Manipur, who plans to surprise his mother with a gift. In his innocence, he believes that bringing his father back home would be the most special gift. His search for his father leads to an unexpected gift – a new beginning.

Director Lakshmipriya Devi, who has always aspired to tell stories, chose to direct Boong only when a story from her own experiences emerged. This narrative organically developed while seeking closure from a difficult part of her childhood in Manipur, a place she calls home in the northeastern corner of India. Drawing from her experience as a First Assistant Director on landmark Indian productions such as Luck by Chance, Talaash, PK, and A Suitable Boy, Devi makes her directorial debut with Boong.

Boong will have a World Premiere in the Discovery section at the 49th Toronto International Film Festival, taking place September 5-15, 2024.

Boong is a bittersweet reflection of her memories of Manipur, demonstrating the production house's dedication to bringing heartfelt and impactful stories to the forefront of global cinema.
