New Delhi: Kapil Sharma has gained huge popularity due to his comic timing but the actor is all set to showcase his other side as a serious actor in his film ‘Zwigato’. The film, directed by Nandita Das, recently premiered at the Toronto International Film Festival. The trailer of the film was released on Monday. 

Kapil Sharma shared the trailer on his social media accounts on Monday with the caption, "After the successful world premiere at @TIFF_NET, Zwigato is all set to win hearts at @busanfilmfest. Here's a sneak peek into the world of Zwigato, check out the International trailer here.” 

Written and Directed by Nandita Das, the film features Kapil Sharma, who is a new food delivery rider, exploring the world of gig economy. Shahana Goswani plays his wife, a homemaker, who to support his income, starts to work for the very first time. Set in Bhubaneswar, Odisha, the film captures what an ‘ordinary’ family faces in the post-pandemic world. It is the story of the relentless struggle of life, but not without shared moments of joy. It is life-like - bitter-sweet. 

Talking about the film, director Nandita Das said, "Zwigato is a story about new urban India that is not just about the gig economy, but also about everything that we normalize around us. I found the perfect producing partner in Sameer Nair to tell this simple yet complex slice-of-life film. I am thrilled that it will premiere soon at the Toronto International Film Festival (TIFF). This means a lot to me personally as I have debuted there both as an actor and director, with Fire and Firaaq, respectively. Over the years, several other films have taken me to TIFF. I hope the universality of the theme of the film will resonate with the amazing audiences that the festival attracts from all over the world." 

Zwigato was screened at the Toronto International Film Festival, where it received positive reviews.
