@KanuBehl ’s Agra is finally in Indian theatres — in a limited release. As Behl highlights the shrinking space for indie cinema, revisit @annammvetticad’s powerful 2023 review exploring desire, patriarchy and the unsettling dynamics at the heart of Agra. https://t.co/461FXNVOQg

#KanuBehl and other indie filmmakers have chalked out a plan to regulate slot availability at theatres for their movies in the wake of ‘Agra’ getting limited shows despite good response. @KanuBehl spoke with @_ArnabGanguly https://t.co/N6TujMsvCv

Agra is a fantastic film everybody should watch! Surefooted direction, incredible performances. And so authentic to the Indian experience. Provocative. Twisted. Hilarious. With 2 social commentaries that fit so we'll together. Best Hindi release this year. Thanks @KanuBehl

#Agra is quite phenomenal! Still quite shaken by how true it is to its central character. For @atikachohan @KanuBehl and cinema. Kudos to the whole team! Go watch it in theatres.

“I love film. This is my love. You cannot cheat on what you love.” Had a long conversation with @kanubehl about the fight for screens for Agra, the state of streaming platforms, and of course Titli. The title couldn’t be more apt. @thelastdvd https://t.co/IB6yKoJ4mK

A joint statement issued by some of the finest filmmakers in the country. They go through hell to bring their films to the Indian audience. All because they don’t comply with the shallow agenda of distributors and a duplicitous Indian censor board.

It’s never too late to fight a good fight! Best wishes to you all @KanuBehl

We’re all joining forces. And the movement is open to all. I would like to reiterate that this is just beginning and the 46 people are already close to 100, with more joining. The new collective is open to all filmmakers and producers 🙏🙏 https://t.co/lVr0P4Xn5y

Cinema is not bound by the obligation to merely entertain. They may unsettle us at times. In a society fraught with hypocrisy, trapping innocent victims in a fever dream of ignorance, the rarely aware eye finds nausea and rancid depravity as its only companion. @KanuBehl respect

Just saw #Agra finally. Hats off @KanuBehl It was unsettling, yes, but what surprised me is how well humour was used to convey the ridiculousness of situations. A movie about sexual frustration, transactional relationships, and the limitlessness of the spaces we inhabit.

#Agra is quite phenomenal! Still quite shaken by how true it is to its central character. We must preserve @KanuBehl at all costs!

State of affairs. https://t.co/XypTCVPKeT

Sharing this isn't enough. We (the audience) need to support by going to the theaters. But I hope this brings about some change. More power to the independent voices. ✊🏼

@SudhirDesh1970 @KanuBehl Because thats not ‘the solution’.

They make art for the people and if it doesn't reach the people, it is a failure of our gigantic film infrastructure. We say why doesn't India make great films like Hollywood, well, it tries to but these films get suffocated at a nascent level. We need to support these makers.

インドの独立系映画は大躍進中なのだけど、海外で評価されても国内では正当に公開される機会がなかなかない。カヌのAgraもカンヌ国際映画祭で上映されてから2年経ってようやく、だけど不当な扱いで公開されているーこの状況を打倒すべくインド独立系映画監督たちが共同宣言をしました。頑張れ！

If we choose not to from here, then we will all be responsible for the collective erasure. Shared widely and amplify 🙏
