Payal Kapadia and Anurag Kashyap push for Indie film support
Payal Kapadia and Anurag Kashyap discuss the need for stronger support for independent cinema in India as Kapadia’s film 'All We Imagine As Light' prepares for release.
The makers of Manmarziyaan have decided to do their bit to help flood-ravaged Kerala by organising a concert.
The makers announced “Manmarziyaan Concerts” and revolutionized the way music album launches are done in the Hindi film industry. The star-cast of the film Abhishek Bachchan, Taapsee Pannu & Vicky Kaushal, director Anurag Kashyap, music composer Amit Trivedi, his band and over 20 singers will perform during the album tour, spread across 5 metro cities in India.
After a successful show in Mumbai, the troupe now travels to Nagpur. The proceeds generated from the event will go towards the Chief Minister’s Relief Fund for Kerala.

Though it’s a free concert, audiences will be encouraged to make their donations at the boxes installed at the Mankapur Indoor Stadium. Apart from monetary assistance, audiences will also be encouraged to donate supplies, food, clothes, and medicine.
If sources are to be believed, music director Amit Trivedi and his band will perform a special piece dedicated to the victims of the Kerala floods.
Manamarziyan is Anurag Kashyap’s first romantic-drama film, something which he has not done in a career of more than 20 years in the industry.
The Manmarziyaan Concerts will be spread out across every weekend leading to the film’s theatrical release on 14th September.
