'Fatso' to be screened at Shanghai international film festival

Pritish Nandy Communications' (PNC) Fatso will be screened at the 13th Shanghai International Film Festival.

"The film Fatso is all about love packaged in with a calorie count. It's said that matches are made in heaven. This is one of those films where matches are undone in heaven," Pritish Nandy said today.

Starring Gul Panag, Ranvir Shorey, Purab Kohli, Neil Bhoopalam and Gunjan Bakshi, the movie has music by Sagar Desai and is directed by well known director Rajat Kapoor.

Christiana Bian, Manager of Panorama and China, Americas and Oceania Affairs, Shanghai International Film Festival said, "Fatso has been selected officially for our Spectrum category. We have extended an invitation to PNC to attend the festival and participate in it."

Nandy said,"Its always been a challenge for us to get a romantic comedy into an international film festival as most of them prefer serious, issue based cinema, particularly from a country like India. We are honoured to be at Shanghai for the first time."

The festival is scheduled to be held from June 12 to 20.
