Malegaon’s Own Heroes: Reema Kagti’s Latest to Debut at TIFF – Excitement Levels: 100

Namaste doston! Guess what? Your favorite Bollywood spy, Khabree Kiran, is back with another masaledaar scoop! Hold on to your popcorn, because this one’s about to get filmi! 🎬✨

Reema Kagti’s ‘Superboys Of Malegaon’ Set to Rock TIFF

So, Reema Kagti, the master storyteller, is all set to take her latest creation, Superboys of Malegaon, to the Toronto International Film Festival (TIFF). Now, you must be thinking, "What’s the big deal?" Arre baba, TIFF is like the Oscars for indie films! Kagti is over the moon, saying, “I couldn’t be happier.” Seriously, if she was any happier, she’d be dancing on the rooftops of Malegaon! 💃

Reema spills the beans on what drew her to this project. It’s all about Nasir Shaikh, the man who is practically the Amitabh Bachchan of Malegaon. She says, “Nasir Shaikh is an inspirational man. His story drew me into the project. I hope once the film opens to the audience, they are also as inspired as I was by this man.” Wah, wah, kya baat hai!

But wait, there’s more! Kagti believes that festivals like TIFF are a lifeline for small films. *“Such international film festivals contribute to the exposure of small films with unique cultural narratives,”* she explains, adding, *“Being platformed at a major international festival brings attention to the film, and I’m really grateful for the opportunity.”* In other words, it’s like getting a golden ticket to Willy Wonka’s chocolate factory. 🍫

For those who don’t know, Malegaon is a small town in Nasik, Maharashtra, famous for its own film industry known as Mollywood or Malliwood. Thanks to Nasir Sheikh, who made a name with his spoof film, *Malegaon Ka Sholay*. Kagti faced her fair share of challenges during filming. She admits, *“Bad weather and some difficult locations were challenging, but I think the amount of fun I had making the film more than made up for that.”* Sounds like a rollercoaster ride, doesn’t it? 🎢

Reema is all about gratitude. She gives a big shout-out to her team and Nasir Shaikh, saying, *“I am thrilled that the film has been selected in TIFF. I’m grateful that Nasir trusted us with his life rights. I also had absolute support from the cast, my crew, Zoya, Ritesh, and Farhan. I really want to deliver a film that makes everyone proud.”* Well, Reema, we’re already proud of you! 👏

**Kiran’s Gyan:**

*Bollywood ka asli mazaa tabhi aata hai jab chhoti kahaniyan badi screen pe chamakti hain. Aur jab TIFF jaise bade festival mein chhoti filmein jagah paati hain, toh samajh lo, picture abhi baaki hai mere dost!*

Stay tuned for more gupshup and keep those filmi dreams alive! 🌟
