Anuranan is the only Indian film to be screened at the Madrid International Film Festival, in the competitive section, Prime Opera. Director Aniruddha RoyChowdhury won���t be present at the screening but he is keen on making his presence felt at the closing ceremony, which will also see the distribution of prizes.���
I���m busy with the pre-production of my upcoming venture Antaheen, which will show love stories of three couples,��� says the director. And does it come any close to Life...In a Metro? ���Not really. It���s a musical.
The movie has seven songs that will be sung by Shaan, Shreya, Antara, Babul Supriyo and Anindyo. The lyrics have been penned by Anindyo and Chandril of Chandrabindoo fame and the music is scored by Shantanu Moitra.���
Rituparna, who played the lead in Anuranan and is currently busy shooting for an Anjan Das film in Darjeeling, says, ���I really wanted to go to the Festival but couldn���t squeeze time out of my busy schedule. I���m happy knowing that Anuranan is the only Indian film that will be screened at the Festival. The nomination is a prize in itself. I wish Aniruddha all the best.���
