MUMBAI: A retrospective of Prakash Jha‘s films will be held in Fiji from 18 to 21 August.
The retrospective will feature six films including the recently released Raajneeti, GangaaJal, Apaharan, Mrityudand, Parinati and Damul.
Raajneeti and Damul will also be screened at the Bollywood Festival at Norway that will be held from 10 to 16 September.
The retrospective is being organised by the Fiji National University, Fiji Audio Visual Commission, Damodar Brothers and the Indian High Commission in Fiji.
Joining the Film and Television Institute of India (FTII), Pune, in 1973, Jha had to leave a course in editing midway, because the institution was closed for a while due to student agitation. He later completed the course in 1976.
In his career that started in 1983, Jha has made films like Hip Hip Hurray, Damul, Parinati, Bandish, Mrityudand, Dil Kya Kare, Rahul, Gangaajal, Apaharan and Raajneeti. His next Turning 30 is now in its post-production stage.
