MUMBAI: “Chhello Show”, India’s official entry to the 95th Academy Awards, will be available to Netflix subscribers in India from Friday.

The Gujarati language film, titled “Last Film Show” in English, was released in Indian theatres on October 14.

The semi-biographical coming-of-age drama, written and directed by Pan Nalin, follows nine-year-old cinema lover Samay as he moves heaven and earth in pursuit of his 35mm dreams, unaware of the heartbreaking times that await him.

Nalin said he is happy to collaborate with Netflix which will help the film reach a wider audience.

“‘Last Film Show’ is a celebration of films, food, friends, and family and now audiences across India can do exactly that from the comfort of their homes while watching it.

“As a filmmaker, I dream that the movie reaches the maximum number of people, and now, thanks to Netflix, ‘Last Film Show’ is just a click away,” the filmmaker said in a statement.

Producer Siddharth Roy Kapur of Roy Kapur Films said the team is thrilled “Chhello Show” has found its home at Netflix India.
