God On The Balcony- an Assamese film directed by acclaimed Assamese filmmaker Biswajeet Bora has been winning accolades all over the globe, despite the restrictions imposed by the COVID situation.

The film has added another feather to its cap as it has been selected for the 24th Shanghai International Film Festival 2021 in the Panorama Section along with the highly anticipated films from the world.

The Shanghai International Film Festival is one of the most prestigious and recognised film festivals in the world.

The Shanghai International Film Festival will be held from June 11 to June 20 this year.

With the normalization of epidemic prevention and control, SIFF will implement key instructions on promoting epidemic prevention and control from Shanghai and the state, and perform relevant requirements.

God On The Balcony has been resonating not only within India, but it has earned the name of its own in many other international film festivals such as the 25th International Film Festival of Kerala, 24th Kolkata International Film Festival, 19th Pune International Film Festival, 20th Imagine India International Film Festival, Madrid and the 19th Dhaka International film festival.

In the coming months, God on the Balcony is set to be shown at a few more international festivals.

Over the last year, God On The Balcony has been screened at the Kolkata International Film Festival – where Bora won the Best Director Award in the Indian Language Films category.

The film has been produced by Noorul Sultan under the Maina Productions banner.

The movie is inspired by the real-life story of poverty-stricken Dana Majhi from Odisha, who was forced to carry the body of his wife on his shoulders for nearly ten kilometres because the government did not care.

The film stars Harish Khanna, Pranami Bora, Porinandhi Jima Sultana in leads and is expecting a theatrical release in October later this year.
