    Co- produced by Zee Studios and Eyecandy, the film’s first poster was released at the Berlin Film Festival in February this year.

    Known for masterpieces like Children of Heaven, The Color of Paradise and Baran, Majidi has a knack of weaving magic on screen with new faces.

    Oscar nominated director had earlier revealed that he always wanted to work with Indian artists.

    “ Filmmakers like Satyajit Ray, whose work I adore, have represented India’s culture, rich heritage and the lives of common people to a global audience. These visions and images have stayed in my mind for years and cajoled me to make a film in India,” he said.
