Boman Irani as a musical genius? That's some inspired casting! He brings such depth to every role. Though I wish they'd cast more female leads with experience - newcomers can be risky. Still, the team looks solid with MM Keeravani's music!

Interesting that they're premiering at Cannes. Hope this isn't one of those films made just for international festivals while ignoring Indian audiences. We need good stories that connect with our roots too. But with these actors, I'm hopeful!
