She has a very unique voice in telling really good stories as we’ve seen in Nil Battey Sannata & Bareilly ki Barfi. I’m really glad that she saw the potential in telling this powerful story and is going to be directing it. Neerja and Jolly LLB2 have been trendsetting films with powerful stories at their core that still resonate with audiences. I’m, now, really looking forward to Ashwiny bringing her unique and powerful story-telling style with Kabaddi. It’s a perfect match between Fox Star Studios & Ashwiny Tiwari Iyer!”
