Film on anti-Sikh riots gets a release date


Writer-producer Harry Sachdeva’s political thriller 31st October starring Vir Das and Soha Ali Khan is slated to release on October 7 after having cleared by the Censor Board.

Directed by National award winning filmmaker Shivaji Lotan Patil, the film is based on the true story ​of a Sikh family's struggle for survival in the wake of the anti-Sikh riots in 1984. The film has already been praised at various international film festivals.

Say Sachdeva and co-producer Anand Prakash,“We are ​proud to bring this subject on the big screen and we are​ glad that after crossing all hurdles." The director adds, “It was a great opportunity for me to direct this subject. It’s the first film ever on the aftermath of Indira Gandhi’s assassination and it’s a film for the world audience.”
