Swetta Keswani heads to IFFI for The Memsahib

Actress Swetta Keswani is not only packing her bags, but also arranging tickets… And where is she heading, you ask? She’s is all set to re-unite with NRI Director Kruti Majmudar and British Actor Emily Hamilton at the IFFI, Goa for the screening of her latest cinematic endeavor,’ The Memsahib’.

Having already received rave reviews in three film festivals in the US: Pittsburgh 3 River Festival, Stonybrook Festival in New York and Dances with Films, Los Angeles , this English film, also starring Parvin Dabas and Murli Sharma, is all set to make its Indian cinema debut.

Swetta, who plays Dabas’s sister, and the sister-in-law and confidante of Hamilton’s character, serves as a companion and guide to the young Memsahib as she discovers and comes to terms with her new life, as a wife and a princess in a foreign land – India 1850’s.

But their world is drifting towards revolution, and when differences of resolve ignite between the prince [Parvin Dabas] and his fellow Noblemen [including Murli Sharma], betrayal is close at hand. A fresh view of Swetta, de-glam , sans make-up, and without the characteristic Hindi cinema ‘bling’, promises to give the audience an unexpected treat.

Swetta exclaims, ” I hope audiences will appreciate this entirely different performance from me - I’m really looking forward to the screening!”

We wish her all the best!
