Speaking about the launch Indira said, “To have the first look of Echoes of Valour unveiled at Cannes — and by the legendary Shekhar Kapur, was a moment I will carry with me for a long time. This film is, at its core, a mother-to-mother promise. I gave my word to Shukla Bandopadhyay that I would tell her story with unwavering honesty and grit, and I am deeply grateful for the chance to honour that promise. It wasn’t easy, but we’ve done it, with all our heart. This film is a tribute to the parents of the soldiers of the Indian Army, to their courage, their resilience, and their quiet sacrifices”.

She further mentioned, “To share this journey on a global stage like Cannes, in the presence of our incredible collaborators, Margaret Zambonini, our producer; Sayan Ganguly, our music director and co-producer, is a privilege. I remain especially thankful to the Ministry of Information & Broadcasting, Government of India, FICCI, and NFDC for their continued support in bringing Echoes of Valour to the world”.

The film is currently in the making by a passionate team committed to cinematic authenticity and emotional depth.
