Fronted by Radhika Madan, Indian film Sanaa is set to open the upcoming edition of the UK Asian Film Festival, which will take place from May 4th to May 13th.

Madan along with director Sudhanshu Saria will grace the special screening at the BFI Southbank in London.

Excited about the screening, Radhika said, "Sanaa is a very special film for me. It's a film that talks about unresolved trauma, something that a lot of people go through but never talk about. It was a challenging role for me, and I am so glad that it has been appreciated by audiences worldwide. I am really excited to present the film at UK Asian Film Festival and to share Sanaa with the audience there."

Sudhanshu Saria also expressed happiness. "What an honour for the entire team to launch the 25th edition of UK Asian Film Festival with our film! We are thrilled to be part of this wonderful event that has been celebrating diverse voices and helping change minds for the past 25 years. Sanaa is an intimate and raw portrait of the modern Indian woman and I can't wait to see how it resonates with British audiences," he said.

Sanaa follows the story of a headstrong and ambitious girl (Radhika), waging an internal battle that is rooted in unhealed trauma. Pooja Bhatt, Sohum Shah, and Shikha Talsania are also a part of the film.

Eye Spy: Top stories from the world of entertainment

RANI MAKES RETURNDoctor Who acclaimed actress Archie Panjabi added to her diverse body of work by playing the iconic villain Rani in the recently concluded series of Doctor Who. She reprised the role originally portrayed by Kate O’Mara decades ago. Unfortunately, the series – available on BBC iPlayer – has been plagued by problems and suffered plummeting ratings, largely due to poor storylines. As a result, Archie and fellow cast member Varada Sethu are unlikely to return in future episodes.

Arnold Schwarzenegger urges action on climate, tells critics to 'stop whining'

Arnold Schwarzenegger has called on environmentalists to stop complaining about US President Donald Trump’s climate policies and instead take action. Speaking at the Austrian World Summit in Vienna on 3 June, the actor and former California governor said focusing on local efforts could still make a difference.

“I keep hearing, ‘What’s the point of fighting for a clean environment when the US government says climate change is a hoax?’” Schwarzenegger said. “You can’t just sit around and make excuses because one guy in a very nice White House on Pennsylvania Avenue doesn’t agree with you.”
