Sundance Mein Sabar Bonda Ka Sikka! 🎥💥
Well, well, well, Bollywood, looks like our Marathi filmmakers are dancing with the stars at Sundance! Rohan Parashuram Kanawade’s ‘Sabar Bonda’ has created dhamaal at the 2025 Sundance Film Festival, bagging the prestigious World Cinema Grand Jury Prize: Dramatic. Talk about making India proud! 👏
This fabulous film features Bhushaan Manoj and Suraaj Suman, who are rekindling their pyaar in the scenic rural village of Maharashtra. Who knew rural romance could be so filmi and fabulous, right? ‘Sabar Bonda’ is a joint venture of India, UK, and Canada, with the dashing Jim Sarbh trying his hand at production for the first time. Bravo, Jim! 🎬
The film’s synopsis reads like an emotional rollercoaster: Anand, a city slicker, ends up in gaon during his father’s mourning period. There, he finds himself bonding with a local farmer who’s more interested in plowing hearts than fields. As the mourning wraps up, Anand faces the classic Bollywood dilemma—love or leave? 💔
The buzz around this movie is as real as a Mumbai traffic jam. Critics are raving about the film’s honest portrayal of Indian queer lives, calling it a giant leap forward for representation. Aur kya chahiye, bhai? It’s about time we see such stories on the big screen, without any rona-dhona, just pure heartfelt love. 🌈
If you thought this was a fluke, think again! Indian films have been on a winning spree at Sundance. Last year, Shuchi Talati’s ‘Girls Will Be Girls’ and the documentary ‘Nocturnes’ brought home the gold. With previous wins like ‘Writing with Fire’ and ‘All That Breathes,’ it seems like Sundance and Indian cinema are now like chai aur biscuit—inseparable! 🏆
