The campaign “Baccha Bollywood” is the brainchild of Inorbit Malls, which was initiated with a view to engage kids in their summer vacation by introducing them to film making and giving them a chance to star in a film with renowned names from the film fraternity.
The idea of the movie “1869” was developed by renowned ad film maker, Pranav Harihar Sharma after a thorough 6 month research process. Set in the 19th Century Victorian Hospital in India under the British Raj, the story revolves around three orphan kids, who set about solving the mystery of a missing new born. Produced by the Gang of Motion Pictures, this 25 minute film is one of the most expensive short films made in India. Apart from Sanaya Das, the other kids who played the key roles were Vedanth Dattani and Kabir Sajid. Backed by strong performance by the supporting cast of Abhishek Pathak, Kiran Khoje, Beena Banerjee, Vijay Kumar and Chris Peter the movie was loved by the guests/audience. 1869 will now be sent out as nominations for various film festivals in India and abroad.
Commenting on this occasion, Mr. Puneet Varma, Associate Vice President, Marketing and Corporate Communications, Inorbit Malls said “India is a land of talent and Inorbit mall always creates platforms to promote talent. Baccha Bollywood was one such platform which garnered massive response from kids. Team Inorbit thanks Pranav and Gang of Motions team for giving an opportunity to Sanaya, who was a part of Baccha Bollywood. Hope to see more talent being promoted via such campaigns.”
