Mumbai: Aakash Prabhakar’s English Indian Film “Freddie’s Piano” has made it to the official lineup of NYIFF 2021. The festival dates are June 4-June 13 on Moviesaints Platform. Prabhakar’s maiden film is a young adult film about two half-brothers Aden and Freddie. “Freddie's Piano” was screened virtually at the Scottsdale International Film Festival from November 6 to 15, 2020.
Prabhakar comes from a theatre background and
has done several plays, short films under his company Here and Now since 2015.
Aakash says, “I am ecstatic about the film being selected at NYIFF, “Freddie’s
Piano” is a story which is very personal to me at some level and so it is very
close to my heart. Although the film on the surface looks like it’s about the
elder brother (Aden) trying to buy his younger brother (Freddie) a grand piano
for Christmas, the piano is a metaphor or a way for Aden to tell his younger
brother that he is there for him no matter what.”
The cast includes Aakash Prabhakar, Pranav
Mylarassu, Mathivanan Rajendran, Drishya Gautham, Leela Samson, Mekha Rajan,
Anirudh among others.
