Krishen is recognized as one of Indian cinema's most original filmmakers. His campus cult classic 'In Which Annie Gives It Those Ones,' with a script by Arundhati Roy, is noted for capturing 1970s Delhi student life with wit. 'Massey Sahib' garnered international acclaim and launched Raghuvir Yadav's career, while 'Electric Moon' offered a satirical perspective on post-colonial India. Beyond filmmaking, Krishen has become a leading naturalist in India.
The Red Lorry Film Festival is scheduled to take place in Mumbai from March 13 to 15. The event will present a diverse selection of over 120 films from around the world, alongside the Krishen retrospective. Festival passes are currently available for purchase.
