Rango Bibaaho, a highly anticipated contemporary social comedy directed by Amitabha Chaterji, made a resounding international debut at the prestigious Marche du Film during the Cannes Film Festival. The film’s official trailer and poster were unveiled across two high-profile events, capturing the attention of the global film fraternity.

The initial launch took place at the CII Indian Pavilion on May 15th, followed by a second exclusive presentation at the Bharat Pavilion on May 19th. These events drew an impressive gathering of international filmmakers, industry delegates, members of the global press, and cinematic dignitaries, positioning the film as a standout independent project from India.

Written, shot, and directed entirely by the multi-talented Amitabha Chaterji, Rango Bibaaho is a poignant social comedy that delves into the complexities of human connection. The film offers a satirical yet deeply emotional exploration of:

• Love and companionship in contemporary society.
• The growing epidemic of urban loneliness.
• The evolving, often unpredictable dynamics of modern marriages.

Through sharp humor and keen social observation, Chaterji’s narrative examines how traditional ideas of personal connection are shifting in the modern era, making it a globally relatable story wrapped in regional authenticity.

The film features a stellar ensemble cast, with powerful performances anchored by Deshaa Nandii, Amrita Mukhopadhyay, Partha Sarathi Chandra, and Jagannath Chakraborty in pivotal roles.

Adding glamour and international prestige to the launch, the film’s official poster was jointly unveiled at the Indian Pavilion by Bollywood actress Pooja Batra and acclaimed American producer Angela Asatrian, alongside other industry dignitaries.

The double-unveil at Cannes marks a significant milestone for the project, establishing its first official footprint on the international stage.

With its successful showcase at the Cannes Marche du Film, Rango Bibaaho has generated substantial industry buzz. The film is now primed to embark on its competitive run across the international film festival circuit while simultaneously preparing for its highly anticipated domestic theatrical release in India.
