The trailer for award winning film Homebound has been released, offering audiences a glimpse at a sweeping and emotional drama starring Janhvi Kapoor, Ishaan Khatter and Vishal Jethwa.
Homebound is directed by Neeraj Ghaywan (Masaan) and executive produced by legendary filmmaker, Martin Scorsese, whose involvement underscores the film’s global ambition and cinematic scale.
Earlier this year, Homebound had its World Premiere at Cannes Film Festival in the prestigious Un Certain Regard section, where it was celebrated for its intimate storytelling and powerful performances. The film has continued to gain momentum on the international festival circuit, earning acclaim as the Second Runner-Up for the International People’s Choice Award at Toronto International Film Festival (TIFF).
