Cannes Convergence: Genre Shifts and Women's Rise Guneet Monga Kapoor's ascension to producing stardom at Cannes this year has raised questions about what it means for India's film industry that women like her are driving genre pivots.
The Oscar winning producer behind "The Elephant Whisperers" is no stranger to Cannes, having showcased her work in Critics' Week and Un Certain Regard.
This year, she appeared with four scholarship recipients from Women in Film India (WIFI), marking a deliberate shift towards genre cinema, women led franchises, and gaming.
