My feature length screenplay - Nisa (Woman) won The Emerging Voice in Indian Cinema Award -"With her film Nisa, Ambarien takes us through the joys, laughter, dreams and aspirations of Muslim women, and counters a narrative of victimhood."The screenplay also got the maximum number of queries from both Indian and International production agencies, including The Creative Artists Agency, USA.
Based on my mother's beauty salon in Jamia Nagar, New Delhi where I spent several afternoons writing, part time working and observing, this is an intimate and personal 'coming out' and a 'coming of age.' I can't wait to share this with you.
Production begins shortly!
