Anurag Kashyap’s ‘Kennedy’ Receives A Standing Ovation Of 7 Minutes
Anurag Kashyap’s police noir ‘Kennedy’ received phenomenal success at the Cannes Film Festival. The film which was screened at the Midnight Screening section at the award show, got a standing ovation of seven minutes post-screening. In a video shared by paparazzi Viral Bhayani, the film’s lead actor Rahul Bhatt is shown getting emotional at the adulation. Kanu Behl’s film ‘Agra’ which was also screened at the festival received a five-minute standing ovation.
In an interview with Film Companion, Kashyap said, “It’s always special to show your film to the world at Cannes and it’s a lifetime moment to play at the Grand Theatre Lumiere. Kennedy is a very special film to me and extremely personal too. We have put our heart and soul into making this film. 7 mins long standing ovation from the audience has made me full of gratitude. I am very grateful and excited at the same time.”
