Cannes - Dimpy Agrawal’s
Gubbara Entertainment has recently announced a $1 million script development
fund during the Cannes Film Festival. This initiative aims to empower Indian
feature filmmakers by providing financial support for developing narratives
that have the potential to resonate both locally and globally.
As a former producer at Netflix India, Agrawal brings her
expertise to this significant move in a country where spec scripts are the norm
and development funds are still in their infancy. The fund will support
emerging and established talent, fostering diverse voices in cinema. Alongside
this, Gubbara Entertainment is exploring co-productions across a seven-film
slate and developing long-form scripted and unscripted content.
The fund is a significant move for India where spec
scripts are the norm and development funds are in their infancy. It is designed
to provide support to both emerging and established talent, offering financial
assistance to develop narratives that have the potential to travel worldwide.
