Anupam Kher’s Tanvi The Great Receives Heartfelt Praise in London

Veteran actor and filmmaker Anupam Kher recently took to social media to share a moment of pride following the London screening of his directorial venture, Tanvi The Great. In a heartfelt post, Kher expressed gratitude to celebrated filmmaker Gurinder Chadha, who praised the film and its lead actress, Shubhangi. The warm acknowledgment from Chadha, known internationally for her culturally resonant films, appears to have deeply moved Kher. He described her praise as “amazing and humbling,” especially for a film that holds such personal significance.

 

Tanvi The Great marks a notable directorial effort by Kher and features a compelling mix of Indian and international talent, including Iain Glen and Jackie Shroff. What makes the film even more special is the debut of Shubhangi in the lead role — a performance that Chadha described as remarkable. Kher highlighted that her commendation is “an ultimate award” for a newcomer, underscoring how much it means when respected voices in the industry recognize emerging talent.

 

Gurinder Chadha’s words carry extra weight given her legacy of telling heartfelt stories rooted in identity, diaspora, and personal journeys — from Bend It Like Beckham to Blinded by the Light. Her connection to culturally rich narratives makes her praise particularly meaningful for a film like Tanvi The Great, which seems to echo similar emotional and cultural themes. The film’s ability to strike a chord with someone of Chadha’s background suggests that it has the potential to resonate globally.

 

As the film garners international attention, moments like this one — a seasoned director celebrating a debut filmmaker’s work — reflect the spirit of cinema that transcends borders. Kher’s joy is not just about applause for his direction, but about recognition of sincere storytelling and fresh talent. With endorsements like Chadha’s, Tanvi The Great is poised to reach a wider audience, opening the door for more stories that speak to both the heart and the human experience.
