Ian to inaugurate Kashish 2016
Ian McKellen will inaugurate the seventh edition of Kashish Mumbai International Queer Film Festival. Over 182 films from 53 countries will be screened at the festival.
McKellen will be the chief guest at the festival's opening ceremony, to be held on May 25 at liberty Cinema. The ceremony is open to all registered delegates of the festival.
“For too many years, gay characters appeared in films only as comic relief, as often as not meeting a sticky end, as if that’s all they deserved. Increasingly, in India too, the film industry has matured, treating gay people with the same seriousness as straight characters,” McKellen said in a statement.
