It’s going to take producer and writer Anshulika Dubey a while to process this good news. Rightly so. It’s not every day that Hollywood filmmaker Richard Linklater throws his weight behind an Indian movie. The filmmaker — known for the Before franchise and Boyhood (2014) — has joined as an executive producer of How to Not Have Sex, a Hindi adaptation of his movie Tape (2001).
