\n\tDirected by Padmakumar Narasimhamurthy, the film debuted in Busan, was part of the Best of Fest selection at Palm Springs and played at the International Film Festival of Kerala.<\/p>\n

\n\tThe Hindi and English-language feature also earned audience honors in Sonoma San Francisco and in Osaka, along with best feature wins at Stuttgart, Cincinnati, Berlin\u2019s Indo-German film week and RIFFA in Canada.<\/p>\n

\n\tNarasimhamurthy previously helmed \u201cA Billion Colour Story\u201d to critical acclaim. He\u2019s joined on this project by producers Samiksha and Shael Oswal of SSO Productions. <\/p>\n

\n\t\u201cMax, Min & Meowzaki\u201d follows three generations of Mahadevan men who find themselves suddenly single at the same time, weaving together stories of messy young relationships, family ties, differing ideologies and sexualities, therapy and healing, all set against the backdrop of a cat named after Japanese filmmaker Miyazaki Hayao.<\/p>\n

\n\tThe cast includes Adil Hussain, Mandira Bedi, Nasser, Nafisa Ali, Siddharth Menon, Medha Shankr and Vidhatri Bandi, with a cameo from animation filmmaker Gitanjali Rao.<\/p>\n

\n\t\u201cMax, Min & Meowzaki\u201d opens in Indian cinemas July 24.<\/p>\n

\n\tShiladitya Bora, founder of Platoon One Films, said: \u201cAt Platoon One, we back films that don\u2019t fit a traditional formula, and we back them theatrically, because that\u2019s where these stories belong. \u2018Max, Min and Meowzaki\u2019 is exactly that kind of film: a warm, deeply human story about love, loss, and the lives people quietly build around each other, directed by Padmakumar Narasimhamurthy and led by a stellar cast. We will continue to champion bold, distinct voices and make sure they reach the widest possible audience.\u201d<\/p>\n

\n\t\u201c\u2018Max Min & Meowzaki\u2019 is exactly why Platoon One Films exists \u2013 to back singular voices and give them a real theatrical stage. We\u2019re not chasing algorithms. We\u2019re building India\u2019s A24, one uncompromised film at a time. See you in cinemas July 24. Theatrical isn\u2019t dead. It just needs films worth leaving the house for. \u2018Max Min & Meowzaki\u2019 is that film,\u201d Bora added.<\/p>\n

\n\t\u201cEckhart Tolle says that when the collective pain-body\u00a0is dominated by violence, fear, outrage, and grief, the most valuable entertainment is what reconnects people with aliveness, beauty, humor, stillness, or compassion. I\u2019ve always believed in cinema that does this. I\u2019m glad I found a collaborator like Samiksha, and now Shila who comes from the same school of thought,\u201d Narasimhamurthy said. <\/p>\n
