New Delhi: The cold war between superstars Salman Khan and Shah Rukh Khan might have ended years ago, but for this brother sister duo, it has not. These kids are still hell bent to prove that their favourite star is better than the other.
And the thing is, these kids are themselves stars who garnered applauds at most of the International film festivals.
In the new trailer of filmmaker Nagesh Kukonoor’s ‘Dhanak’, the kids Pari (played by Hetal Gadda) and Chotu (played by Krrish Chhabria) can be seen taking sides of SRK and Salman respectively.
Dhanak is a heart warming story of a kid Pari, who embarks on a journey to get his blind younger brother Chotu treated. She makes a promise to Chotu, that she will cure his blindness before his 9th birthday. Set against the backdrop of a Rajasthan village, ‘Dhanak’ tells how Pari on seeing her favorite star Shah Rukh Khan on the poster for an eye-donation drive, is convinced her hero will help her on the mission.
While King Khan, himself appreciated the trailer of the film when it released, looks like the film is not going to be all about him, as it stars Chotu, a die hard Bhai fan.
‘Dhanak’ premiered at the 65th Berlin International Film Festival where it competed in the Generation KPlus section and won the Crystal Bear Grand Prix for Best Children's Film, and Special Mention for the Best Feature Film by The Children's Jury for Generation Kplus. The film has also garnered the Best Film Award in the main category-Children's Feature Film Competition-Cinema in Sneakers (film festival), and the Best Film Award - at the Montreal International Children's Film Festival (FIFEM). Dhanak was also screened at the International Film Festival Los Angeles (IFFLA) and the TIFF Kids International Film Festival.
