Directed by National Award-winning director, Tigmanshu Dhulia and starring Amit Sadh & Tapsee Pannu, Baarish and Chowmein, screened yesterday at The Cuckoo Club as a part of the ZEE5 Film Festival.
The story revolves around Siraj who is unable to rent a house in Mumbai as not many are willing to accommodate a Muslim. So, he hides his true identity and finds a home, where he falls in love with the landlord’s daughter, Neelu. Will Siraj be honest and disclose his secret to Neelu?
Tigmanshu Dhulia, the Director, said,
“When this initiative came along, I felt this was a great opportunity to be a part of ushering in the change that we all wish to see. Releasing the movies exclusively on the digital medium as part of the ZEE5 Film Festival will help take it to newer audiences. Also, now, people like to see movies at their homes on their laptops and mobile.”
Amit Sadh, the lead actor in the movie said,
“Baarish Aur Chowmein is a simple love story showing how love eventually prevails. I had always wanted the movie to be available in the public domain and I’m glad ZEE5 is making that happen with the ZEE5 Film Festival. With Baarish and Chowmein, I got a chance to work with Tigmanshu Sir, which has been a great learning experience.”

The movie will be available on ZEE5 from 31st August.
