Filmmaker Ashutosh Gowariker's latest Bollywood film 'Mohenjo Daro', starring Hrithik Roshan in the lead, will be screened at the 45th Annual Conference on South Asia in Wisconsin, US.
The annual conference that invites scholars, students, professionals and anyone interested in research on the region to Madison, Wisconsin, is a four-day event starting on October 20. The film will be screened on October 23.
The conference is the leading annual meeting in the US for scholars of South Asian studies, attracting over 700 participants from around the world, to participate in various panels on archaeology.
"When the conference chair Mitra Sharafi connected with me requesting permission to screen 'Mohenjo Daro' at their Annual Conference, I felt honoured and humbled," Gowariker said in a statement.
He added: "I thank Jonathan Mark Kenoyer, a leading archaeologist who has spent over 30 years studying the Mohenjo Daro and Harappa sites for supporting the film and sharing his knowledge."
Released in India on August 12, the film marks the debut of Pooja Hegde. It brings an epic adventure-romance story on the silver screen, and is set in the city of Mohenjo Daro in the era of the Indus Valley civilisation which dates back to 2,600 BC.
Kenoyer and his team had visited Mumbai to provide Gowariker with all the archaeological findings in the early stages of pre-production of the film. They even visited the set in Bhuj to see its construction and look at all the props that would be used in the film.
