Celebrated filmmaker Madhur Bhandarkar is going to grace the 25th edition of the New York Indian Film Festival (NYIFF) as the guest of honour, as his critically acclaimed film ‘Fashion’ will have screening at the festival on March 7, 2025. This coincides with the eve of International Women’s Day. The special screening will take place at the iconic Village East by Angelika theater in Manhattan, New York.
