Tannishtha Chatterjee's Film 'Full Plate' to Premiere at Busan

New Delhi, Aug 26 (PTI) Actor Tannishtha Chatterjee, who has bravely shared her stage 4 oligometastatic cancer diagnosis, has completed her film "Full Plate" amidst personal challenges. She is thrilled that the film, which she wrote and directed, is set to have its world premiere at the Busan International Film Festival.

Amidst a personal journey filled with challenges, I managed to complete 'Full Plate', a film I penned and directed. The diagnosis came during post-production earlier this year. Despite the odds, I'm thrilled to announce that 'Full Plate' will have its world premiere at the Busan International Film Festival in 2025," Chatterjee added.
