The film directed by a well known Sydney based Indian-Australian filmmaker Anupam Sharma has been an initiative supported by Screen Australia and Screen NSW with major investment from Australia India Film Fund.

"unINDIAN" which had its world premiere in Montreal, continued to be screened at number of film festivals throughout Europe and America. The film opened across 70 screens in Australia, with MADMAN picking up ancilliary sales in Australia.

The producers will be selling the film to various territories, particularly India, through their global sales agents, Yellow Affair at Cannes.

Speaking from Cannes, Miira Paasillinna and Chris Howard from Yellow Affair said, "We are delighted to be selling this warm and funny Australian film. There have been many queries from India because of the Bollywood cast in the film and also the popularity of Brett Lee and of cricket there.

"We believe the film deserves an audience as it portrays a positive message about cultural differences and tolerance." "unINDIAN" also stars Supriya Pathak Kapur, Akash Kurana and Gulshan Grover.
