Veteran theatre director Anamika Haksar’s film Ghode Ko Jalebi Khilane Le Ja Riya Hoon not only had its world premiere at the Mumbai International Film Festival in 2018, but was the only Indian film to be selected for the New Frontier segment of the 2019 Sundance Film Festival. The film will finally have its theatrical release in India on June 10th. The film stars Ravindra Sahu, Raghubir Yadav, Lokesh Jain and K Gopalan in the lead.

Speaking about her film Anamika said, “I couldn't release it due to covid and I am now delighted for the India release. The film is a result of seven years of documentation of the lives of the street people of old Delhi - beggars, pickpockets, loaders, small scale factory workers, street singers, street vendors etc.” 

The director further added, “The team comes from different backgrounds: theatre, painting, animation, cinema and special effects along with a very gifted cinematographer and videographer Saumyananda Sahi, the film will move from real landscapes to photographs to theatrical moments to painted landscapes to the absolute cinema, an exciting journey for all of us.”
