MUMBAI: Sony Pictures Networks Productions (SPNP) is all set to launch the trailer of their next film ‘T for Taj Mahal’ on an international platform.

The trailer of the film will be unveiled at the India Pavilion in Cannes Film Festival on May 9th, 2018.

Directed by six-time president’s national award winner Kireet Khurana, ‘T for Taj Mahal’ is a relevant and timely story exploring a subject that is a big challenge in the country – the lack of education.

The film stars Subrat Dutta, US actress Ali Faulkner (The Twilight Saga - Breaking Dawn), Bidita Bag and Manoj Pahwa.

‘T for Taj Mahal’ is produced by Sony Pictures Networks Productions and Abis Rizvi Films. Post Cannes the film will be presented at London Indian Film Festival in the month of June, 2018.

The film will release theatrically in India later this year.

“ ‘T for Taj Mahal’ is a story that deserves to be seen by the global audience and a platform like the India Pavilion at Cannes Film Festival allows for the film fraternity across the world to sample it and help us take it as far and wide as possible. I truly hope everyone loves the film and will embrace the intent in its full glory.”

Kireet Khurana, Director

"I am grateful that SPNP is so committed to the film and is going the extra mile for something they believe in. A platform like Cannes allows the film to be presented to a wider audience, especially given the relevant subject. I am looking forward to the reactions post the trailer launch"
