Sundance Winner ‘Girls Will Be Girls’ Sets Prime Video Debut, Unveils Trailer (EXCLUSIVE)


Prime Video has locked in a streaming premiere for Shuchi Talati's Sundance-winning Indian coming-of-age drama 'Girls Will Be Girls.'

The Indo-French co-production marks the debut of Pushing Buttons Studios, the production banner launched by Indian actors Richa Chadha and Ali Fazal. First-time director Talati, who also wrote the screenplay, brings together newcomers Preeti Panigrahi and Kesav Binoy Kiron in lead roles, with Kani Kusruti rounding out the cast. Manish Menghani, director of content licensing at Prime Video India, positioned the acquisition as part of the platform’s strategy to diversify its content offerings, describing the title as “a coming-of-age film that delves into the unique struggles, discoveries, and complexities faced by young adults.” Chadha noted the film’s exploration of “inter-generational conflicts and struggle for independence,” while Fazal highlighted the project’s significance as their production company’s first venture.
