Upcoming social drama Chicken Curry Law’s two minute long trailer was released recently.

In the past few years, the crimes against foreign travellers in India, especially women have gone up exponentially. However very little data is available on the rape cases happening against foreigners. While many people treat foreigners with love and care, many people are prejudiced towards them. The poster and trailer deals with this sensitive issue happening in India!!

Maya, a foreigner, becomes an unfortunate victim of rape at the hands of two men, who have political connection and influence. She is drugged, raped and left to die on the streets of Mumbai by these men. However, she wants to fight the system and a local social activist, Satya Deshmukh, who fights for women’s rights and an idiosyncratic lawyer, Sitapati Shukla decide to help Maya seek justice against the politically strong and rich accused. What happens next?

Speaking on the trailer launch, director Shekhar Sirrin said that Chicken Curry Law is the outcome of extensive research. The director have spoken to and interviewed activists, lawyers, psychologists and victims as well.

Ashutosh Rana, Nivedita Bhattacharya, Makarand Deshpande, Zakir Hussain, Aman Verma and Polish actress Nataliya Janoszek are part of the cast of the film.

This main aim of the film is to shatter stereotypical assumptions faced by foreign women in India and to uphold the cultural tradition of Atithi Devo Bhava.

Produced by Seven Hills Cine Creations, Chicken Curry Law is being released by Panorama Studios International.

Chicken Curry Law is written and directed by Shekhar Sirrin and will hit the screens on 9th August, 2019.
