Manoj Bajpayee’s first international project, In The Shadows (Gali Guliyaan), is attracting a lot of eyeballs even before entering theatres. The latest news regarding the film is that it has been selected for its grand premiere at three prestigious film festivals - Busan International Film Festival, MAMI and the Chicago Film Festival. To celebrate the feat, makers of the movie have launched its first look.

Expressing his excitement over the film's selection for three international film festivals, actor Manoj Bajpayee said, "It is indeed a time for celebrations for the entire team of In the Shadows as it premiers simultaneously at three prestigious film festivals together - the dates are clashing and we want to be at all the festivals."
