Fresh from his award-winning premiere at the 2015 Berlin Film Festival, Nagesh Kukunoor arrives at IFFLA with this stunning tale of a brother and sister who embark on a journey across Rajasthan in an attempt to meet the great Shah Rukh Khan. Pari is the responsible older sister to Chotu, a high-spirited blind boy on the brink of his ninth birthday.  Chotu wants nothing more than to have his vision back and Pari -- inspired by a message she sees on a Shah Rukh Khan poster -- promises him he'll get it before his birthday arrives.  When the two learn that Shah Rukh Khan is filming only a few hundred kilometers from their village, they sneak away from home and set out to meet the superstar.

What follows is a trek full of side-splitting banter and bickering between the two remarkable children, vibrant colors, lively music, new friendships, and harrowing danger.  Kukunoor's two young leads embody the adventurous spirit that comes with growing up and taking your fate into your own hands for the first time.  He has crafted an utterly gorgeous film around one simple wish, and ultimately delivers a disarming, heartfelt plea to recognize and appreciate the beauty that exists all around us.

Gala tickets include a reception at the IFFLA Lounge prior to the screening, and the Los Angeles red-carpet premiere of the film followed by an exclusive dinner reception at the Nirvana-Bombay Palace.
