Splendid Films’ Goldfish is all set to release in theatres worldwide. Ahead of the release of the film, the team of Goldfish today hosted a special screening for the family of Alzheimer’s & Related Disorders Society Of India. ARDSI Mumbai Chapter activities include spreading more awareness of this neuro-disorder by holding talks at all levels of society, educational institutions, service sectors, and corporates to reduce social stigma and make it an inclusive society.
Talking about the initiative of hosting a special screening for the ARDSI family, Kalki Koechlin said, “Disorders like Dementia and Alzheimer’s are not easy to fight. It consumes a person and makes them forget their identity; in such cases, it is especially tough for the caregivers as they end up living two separate lives. Goldfish is a movie that displays this type of conundrum that a mother-daughter face in this kind of situation. The film is a raw and emotional portrayal of a very sensitive situation. Splendid Films has taken a heart-touching initiative by holding a special screening for the ARDSI family. We hope that we are able to contribute a little bit and bring a smile to every person’s face who’s watching this movie today
Deepti, who gracefully essays the role of Sadhana Tripathi in the movie shared, “When it comes to portraying the character in the film, the sentiments are almost the same when it comes to the mother-daughter equation in reel and real life. The relatability with the role in Goldfish came from my own lived experiences with my mother who had Alzheimer’s for many years before she passed away.
