‘Thank You For Coming’ at TIFF: Full house at gala premiere, shares Ektaa R Kapoor

Ektaa R Kapoor and Rhea Kapoor’s highly anticipated film ‘Thank You For Coming’ will have a Gala Premiere at 2023 Toronto International Film Festival on September 15 and 16.

The shows on both days at TIFF, held at Roy Thomson Hall and Royal Alexandra Theatres, have sold out all their tickets and are houseful. Select seats are being held for allotment at the venue, which too is in high demand as audience is eager to watch a chick-flick addressing women’s sensuality in a quirky way.

Ahead of the premiere, Ektaa R Kapoor took to social media to share the news. Along with the poster of the movie, she wrote, ‘We're at TIFF, and it's HOUSEFULL!’

‘Thank You For Coming’ is the only Indian selection this year to have a Gala Premiere at TIFF.

Speaking about the excitement of the TIFF audience and the anticipation for the Gala Premiere, director Karan Boolani said, ‘The response Thank You For Coming is receiving is quite overwhelming for me. It’s an absolute honour to debut at TIFF with your first film, and now that I am here and see the eagerness of people to watch our film, it’s a feeling I can’t even put into words.’

The entire team, including Bhumi Pednekar, Shehnaaz Gill, Kusha Kapila, Dolly Singh, Shibani Bedi, producers Anil Kapoor and Ektaa R Kapoor, and director Karan Boolani, will be attending the Gala Premiere in Toronto.

‘Thank You For Coming’ will be released in theatres worldwide on October 6, 2023.
