Reema Kagti on the ‘Humbling Experience’ Making ‘Superboys of Malagaon’ Biopic About Renowned DIY Filmmaker


The director and actor were speaking at the Variety Lounge at the Red Sea Film Festival.

Which is why she claims it was a “really humbling experience” making “ Superboys of Malegaon,” her biopic about a group of small-town, DIY Indian filmmakers led by amateur director Nasir Sheikh. On hand to help was Sheikh himself, who Kagti and screenwriter Varun Grover spent a lengthy time within the city of Malagaon while developing the film. As for Sheikh, while he obviously provided the source material for “Superboys of Malegaon” and also helped with the writing and was on set, Kagti gave him a cameo role.
