Mumbai, Nov 27 (IANS) Stars Zeenat Aman, Shabana Azmi and Abhay Deol’s upcoming film “Bun Tikki”, is all set to have its World Premiere at the prestigious 36th Palm Springs International Film Festival (PSIFF) in California on January 5, 2025.
The coming-of-age drama, helmed by director Faraz Arif Ansari, follows a seven-year-old named Shanu and his single father Sidhant as they navigate family dynamics and identity.
The film, which also stars Nushrratt Bharuccha and Rohaan Singh, is a heart-warming tale of family, love and identity.
Ansari said, “This iconic festival has always been a beacon for independent filmmakers and bold storytelling, and I’m beyond excited that our film is part of such a phenomenal line up. Bun Tikki is my love letter to the world — to every child, every parent, and everyone who believes in the transformative power of love, empathy, and kindness.”
The director hopes it sparks conversations that break barriers, bridge differences, and reminds of the kinder, happier world all capable of creating.

I’m so proud of what we’ve created, and I can’t wait to share it with the world.
