Khufiya, the upcoming Hindi web series starring Tabu in the lead role, will have a world premiere at the Indian Film Festival of Los Angeles (IFFLA).
The spy thriller will stream on Netflix on October 5 onwards, with the trailer releasing in three days.
Directed by Vishal Bhardwaj, Khufiya is based on the novel Escape to Nowhere by former R&AW chief of counter espionage Amar Bhushan. The series will feature Tabu as a covert operative who is on a secret mission that will have her juggle between a spy and lover.
Along with the premiere, Vishal will also be presenting a master class on his filmmaking journey and creative process in screenwriting, directing and music.
Besides Khufiya, the festival will also witness the premieres of Atul Sabharwal’s Berlin, Dominic Sangma’s Rapture, Malayalam film Aattam and Joram by Devashish Makhija.
IFFLA executive director Christina Marouda said, “We are thrilled to enter IFFLA’s third decade offering a unique and much needed platform for emerging South Asian storytellers, and bringing a highly curated program to Los Angeles audiences."
“Los Angeles has become home to countless artists with roots across South Asia and its diasporas. IFFLA has long been a vital touchstone for filmmakers due to both the platform it provides for their work to be seen in the heart of the American film industry as well as the support and networking it has offered the directors, actors, and other film artists,” she added.
