Toronto is seeing a lovely slice of India at its ongoing film festival.

Besides Priyanka Chopra-Farhan Akhtar's The Sky Is Pink, it will also see the premiere of Geetu Mohandas' Malayalam film, Moothon.

Sobhita keeps her excitement in check, as she posts a thank you note to her stylist Tanya Ghavri.

 

The Moothon team: Actors Roshan Mathew and Shashank Arora, visual effects supervisor Rif Dagher, Sobhita, co-producer Ajay Rai, director Geetu Mohandas, co-producer Vinod Kumar, Nivin Pauly, Melissa Raju Thomas and producer Anurag Kashyap. 

'This was taken about 5 minutes before the world premiere of our film 'Moothon' in the special selection category at Toronto International Film Festival tonight. This is a script I read and instantly obsessed with, reached out and chased the director to let me audition for (Spamming her with a zillion self tests lol) A film I play a small role in but a film that left me most moved as an actor and an individual. Only and only gratitude and inspiration,' Sobhita writes.

 

Moothon is a bilingual crime film in Malayalam and Hindi.

 

Sobhita shares a unique relationship with her mentor, Anurag Kashyap, as she tells us here.

 

Moothon is a story of a 14-year-old boy Mulla from Lakshadweep, who comes to Mumbai in search of his elder brother, Akbar.

 

And it's time for some relaxing tea after the premiere duties are done.
