Listen "Anupam Sharma and the Rise of Indian Film in Australia"
Episode Synopsis
Why launch an Indian film festival in Australia? Filmmaker Anupam Sharma wants us to think beyond Bollywood. Having spent decades bringing Indian stories to Australian screens—including directing 'UnIndian' starring Brett Lee and Tannishtha Chatterjee—he’s now launching the National Indian Film Festival of Australia (NIFFA). As India and Australia’s ties grow across trade, politics, and culture, NIFFA adds a new dimension—one told through film. Debuting Feb 13 – Mar 2 with partners like Dendy and NDTV, NIFFA is Australia’s first national Indian film festival. Dilpreet Taggar invites Sharma to the studio to dive deeper.
