The film shot in Pune and Mumbai, is touted to be a potpourri of relationships, love and marriage in urban lives.
Producer Vidhi Kasliwal of Landmarc Films says, "After finishing the film, as we were gearing up for its release; the pandemic struck the whole world. It has been a challenging time for everyone including the film industry. However, things are looking up now. The response has been striking thus far and it looks like the film was destined to find its first audiences through film festivals across the globe."
Medium Spicy will be screened live on-ground in Florence, Italy at the iconic La Compagnia cinema on the 8th of December. It would also be available online simultaneously for people attending the film festival virtually all over Italy.
