Toronto, May 12: Encouraged by the positive feedback of the first ever screening of the Mangalurean Konkani movie ‘Ek Aslyar Ek Na’ (EAEN) in Toronto, the Canara World Foundation Inc (CWF), in association with Konkan Organization of Toronto (KOT) and Canadian Canara Vision Inc. (CCVI) is all set to screen the yet another super hit movie ‘Noshibacho Khell’.
‘Noshibacho Khell’ is scheduled to be screened on Sunday, June 11 at 11 am at the Albion Theatre, Etobicoke ON, M9V 1B4.
The organizers said they are privileged to be screening this movie in Toronto, which has become a mega Konkani talent hub in North America. The movie has run in theatres across India, Gulf countries and Israel since April 2016.
The movie has been written and produced by Henry D’Silva, a prominent Konkani personality and directed by the Bollywood fame Harry Fernandes.
Well known Konkani playwright Henry D’Silva Suratkal, in the late seventies consistently presented many successful Konkani plays on Bombay’s Konkani stage. As an amateur producer he had enthralled Konkani drama lovers with the first super hit ‘Kazara Uprath’ almost thirty years ago. His great love for his mother tongue and passion for performing arts prompted him to produce ‘Noshibacho Khel’, now a blockbuster.
The film has been beautifully shot in various locales. The movie is co-produced by Carol D’Souza and has an interesting story line which keeps the audience glued to their seats throughout.
Elton Mascarenhas and singer Ester Noronha are in male and female lead roles. Other actors are Prince Jacob from Goa, Ranjitha Lewis, Clenvin Fernandes, Sujatha Andrade, Stany Alvares and Alwyn Andrade.
After successful shows in India the film was also screened with houseful shows in Kuwait and Qatar and Dubai. The film has been already booked for shows in London and other places. .
The film screening initiative hopes to connect the Konkani speaking diaspora of Canada with their roots and promote their mother tongue through the medium of movies, art, culture, dance and language.
On behalf of KOT& CCVI, the CWF president Max Mendes has informed Daijiworld Canada that movie tickets are being sold like hot cakes. He applauded the co-partner associations KOT& CCVI for their enormous support in screening yet another Mangalurean movie on Canadian screen. After the tremendous success of screening the first ever Mangalurean movie EAEN and support from KOT& CCVI, he expressed his desire to screen more Konkani and Tulu movies in Canadian theaters in the near future.
