Earlier, Joseph Gordon-Levitt shared his excitement about visiting India for the first time. The actor said, "It feels surreal to be visiting India for the first time. I've long been a fan of Indian music and culture and have been engaging with Indian creators through our community, HIT RECORD. Being invited to speak at the 14th Season of IFP is truly an honour. The rise of independent cinema, storytelling, and art in India fascinates me. There's something captivating about how its rich history blends with the world of film and music. I'm excited to experience this vibrant creativity firsthand at IFP."
On the work front, Rajkummar Rao's latest film Vicky Vidya Ka Woh Wala Video is currently running in theatres.
