President Droupadi Murmu to watch Anupam Kher's autism-army drama 'Tanvi The Great' at Rashtrapati Bhavan ahead of its global release.

"I am deeply honoured to present our film to our Honourable President - Anupam Kher"

New Delhi, July 10

President Droupadi Murmu will attend a special screening of Anupam Kher's directorial 'Tanvi The Great' at the Rashtrapati Bhavan Cultural Centre ahead of the film's official release.

The screening is a significant moment for the film's team, especially actor and producer Anupam Kher, who has described the film as being close to his heart.

The movie, which highlights autism and the Indian Army, has already gained international praise during its festival run in Cannes, New York, Houston, and London. It also received standing ovations at special previews held at the National Defence Academy and Southern Command, Pune.

Kher, in a press note, shared that he is "deeply honoured" to present the film to the President.

"I am deeply honoured to present our film Tanvi The Great to our Honourable President, Smt. Droupadi Murmu. As a film centred on autism and the Indian Army, who better to showcase this film than the Commander-in-Chief of the Armed Forces? As a leader, she embodies resilience, grace, and trailblazing leadership. We are all eagerly looking forward to her experiencing the film," Kher said.

Kher will be joined by debut actor Shubhangi, who plays the title role of Tanvi, along with co-stars Karan Tacker and Boman Irani, and the film's writers and crew.

'Tanvi The Great' follows the story of Tanvi Raina, who lives with her mother Vidya (played by Pallavi Joshi) and grandfather Colonel Pratap Raina. Inspired by her late father, Samar Raina's service in the army, she sets out to follow in his footsteps.

The film also stars Jackie Shroff, Arvind Swami, Karan Tacker, Nasser, and British actor Iain Glen. It is produced by Anupam Kher Studios in association with NFDC and is set to release worldwide in cinemas on July 18, 2025.

So heartwarming to see our President supporting Indian films with social messages. As someone with an autistic cousin, I'm really looking forward to how they've portrayed this sensitive subject. Hope it creates more understanding in society.

While I appreciate the intentions, I hope the film doesn't oversimplify either autism or military life. Both are complex subjects that deserve nuanced treatment. The standing ovations at NDA are promising though!

Anupam Kher and Pallavi Joshi together again after The Kashmir Files! Their performances are always top-notch. The story sounds inspiring - a girl overcoming challenges to honor her father's legacy. Perfect for Independence Day weekend release!

The cast is stellar - from veterans like Jackie Shroff to fresh face Shubhangi. Interesting to see British actor Iain Glen in an Indian production too. Hope this gets proper international distribution after the festival success.

Rashtrapati Bhavan screening is a big deal! Shows how cinema is being recognized as important cultural work. My father served in the Army - will definitely take him to see this. Jai Hind! 🎖️
