Veteran actor Anupam Kher’s film The Headhunter’s Calling, which features Scottish actor Gerard Butler in a key role, will premiere at the Toronto International Film Festival in September.
The film festival will take place from September 8 to 18.
Kher shared the news on his Twitter handle and posted a video.
“My film The Headhunter’s Calling with Gerard Butler is premiering at Toronto Int Film Festival,” Kher wrote.
In the accompanying video, the actor says: “I came to the city of Mumbai on June 3, 1981, with Rs37 [Dh2.03] in my pocket, which is half a dollar and I can say that I have done fairly well.”
“I want to share a great news with you that my film The Headhunter’s Calling, which also stars Gerard Butler and William Dafoe, has been selected at International film festival at Toronto.”
The 61-year-old, who essays an Indian-American paediatric oncologist in the film, attended TIFF in 2012 for the premiere of his Hollywood film Silver Linings Playbook, which also starred American actors Bradley Cooper and Jennifer Lawrence.
The Headhunter’s Calling is directed by Mark Williams and written by Bill Dubuque.
