Kannada short film at Bangalore Queer Film Festival

The Hindu  

The indie short film K.G.B., directed by Mahishaa, a Bengaluru-based filmmaker, stood out at the 13th edition of the Bangalore Queer Film Festival as the only Kannada language film to be screened at the event. “I have always been interested in seeing boys in the area set up Ganesha pandals, and that’s where the basis of the film was created,” he said. Mahishaa finally selected 16-year-old Likith Raj Arasu, a native of Mysuru, for the role of Hemanth, and Surya Saathi, a student at St. Joseph’s University, for the role of Abhay. Eventually, they found Anush K.M.S., a trans actor and student at St. Joseph’s University, who fit the role perfectly.
