Last Sunday, I showed Zwigato to my son’s entire school. The conversations thereafter were filled with thoughtful questions and insightful observations. Innocent minds sometimes see and feel more than what we grown-ups allow ourselves to. They caught on to the essence of the film so instinctively – the glaring disparities that we have normalized. Initially, it made me sad to reveal this stark reality to them. But then I felt it was important that they know it early on, so they grow up being empathetic and begin to think how to make the world a better place.
I believe, even tiny shifts, remind us of the role of art. It can gently challenge our prejudices, create empathy for the “other,” and make us aware of less familiar worlds. But sometimes we need to train our eyes and minds to such stories. The more we see, the more we appreciate their place in the world. So go watch Zwigato, and all such films that help us become the people we want to be. Let stories of countless, nameless, faceless people not recede into the background of our collective consciousness.
These two days are crucial in deciding how long the film will continue to stay in theatres. At the end of the day, it is a numbers game. But I think there are enough people who care and will go to the theatres and keep such stories alive.

A special screening of #Zwigato was held for Hon’ble @cmo_odisha Mr. Naveen Patnaik. I deeply appreciate his gesture of waiving off the entertainment tax for the film. Now many more can watch it. People of #Bhubaneswar please go see your city, your actors and a story that needs to be told.

It was a packed house. Aisles were full and lines outside were long. Finally the Indian premiere of #zwigato is done! As always, the@iffklive audiences were super enthusiastic and engaged. @chainanisunil of Applause Entertainment and I fielded all the questions. The first one was as expected “How come @kapilsharma?!”A story that is indeed interesting!
Many of you have asked about the release of the film. We want to show you as much as you want to watch it. We’ll let you know soon.
After the screening, I rushed to the inaugural session of the Open Forum, an integral part of the festival. Often I find myself as the only woman on the panel. But the needle is moving. At least there are more of us now telling stories, making films. Watch them!!

Thank you @cmo_odisha for making the film affordable for more people. I hope other states will also consider doing it.

Took a whirlwind trip to Bhubaneswar yesterday. The day was filled with memorable interactions with audiences and media and ended with a special screening for Hon’ble. @CMO_Odisha.

We seldom see different parts of the country in our films, so when people ask me, “Why Bhubaneswar?” my response is always “Why not!”

Day 2 at @iffklive – Shared the stage with filmmakers from various parts of India and the world. It was at the ‘Meet the Director’ forum. We all spoke about the journey of making our respective film. While we all faced challenges, nothing came close to the stories from Ukraine, Iran and Srilanka. Their struggle for life did not dampen their spirit to make films.
At the end, I met some old filmmaker friends from Kerala like @vkprakash61 whose film Punaradhivasam I acted in, @kamalkm who I worked with in Santosh Sivan’s Before the Rains and H. Shaji, the Deputy Director of this festival. This is one of the most inclusive and vibrant festivals I have ever been to.

Thank you so much @Manjultoons. I hope more people will make the effort to see such films in the theatres. Lives of ‘ordinary people’ matter. #Zwigato
@kapilsharma @shahanagoswami @applausesocial @sameern @segaldeepak @viacom18studios
Sharing scenes that didn’t make it to the film. Have fun! To err is human, especially if they are actors! 😉
@kapilsharma @shahanagoswami @sameern @segaldeepak @applausesocial
Now as the 2nd week of Zwigato begins, I thought it would be good to share some stories about the journey of making the film and how it’s been since its release. If you have seen the film, be ready with your observations and questions. And if you haven’t, then let me try and entice you to watch it soon! Or maybe the ones who have, will do that for me!
Join me at 5pm for an Instagram Live. Maze karenge!!
