Priyanka Chopra's 'RU BA RU' goes global at Stuttgart festival
RU BA RU, a Rajasthani short film directed by Kapil Tanwar, is making its global debut at the Indian Film Festival Stuttgart 2025.
The story follows two sisters—one a rudaali, the other a dancer—as they navigate tough realities around caste, class, and gender.
What's cool: it's produced by SHADAM Films with an all-women leadership team—Anvita Gupta, Anita Gurnani, and Priyanka Chopra—who are passionate about telling real women's stories.
'RU BA RU'—award-winning short film
RU BA RU has already picked up a special jury award at Jaipur International Film Festival 2025 and Best Short Film at Madrid's ImagineIndia Film Festival. Next stop: its Spanish premiere in September.
Jury member Maria Zaragoza Hidalgo called it "universally appealing," reflecting how Indian indie films are making waves worldwide.
