In Pictures: World Premiere of SUPERBOYS OF MALEGAON at Toronto International Film Festival

Director Reema Kagti with stars Adarsh Gourav, Vineet Kumar Singh, Shashank Arora, Manjiri Pupala, Anuj Duhan and Saqib Ayub alongside real-life inspiration Nasir Shaikh, writer Varun Grover, and producer Zoya Akhtar attended the World Premiere of SUPERBOYS OF MALEGAON on Friday, September 13th at the Toronto International Film Festival. The audience erupted with an electric response and a standing ovation.

Superboys of Malegaon is a film based on the life of Nasir Shaikh, an amateur filmmaker from the town of Malegaon. The residents of the town look to Bollywood cinema for a much needed escape from daily drudgery. Nasir gets inspired to make a film for the people of Malegaon, by the people of Malegaon. He bands together his ragtag group of friends to bring his vision to life, thereby bringing a fresh lease of life into the town. The film is a poignant yet uplifting take on both filmmaking and friendship – and what happens when those two worlds collide.

Let’s set the stage with the trailer.
