About Laapataa Ladies
Laapataa Ladies, directed by Kiran Rao, is a feminist drama set in rural India in the early 2000s. The film follows two brides, Phool (played by Goel) and Jaya (played by Pratibha Ranta), who are swapped on their wedding day during a train ride.
The film explores their journey and the confusion that follows, with Sparsh Shrivastav playing the groom desperately searching for his bride. The film also stars Chhaya Kadam, Ravi Kishan, and Geeta Agrawal Sharma.
In September, the film was selected as India’s official entry for the 2024 Academy Awards by the Film Federation of India (FFI). Unfortunately, it didn’t make the shortlist of 15 films competing for a spot in the final five.
