‘Bittu’ is the part of ‘Indian Women Rising’, which is a cinema collective started by Ekta Kapoor, Tahira Kashyap Khurrana and Guneet Monga. It is an initiative to promote female content creators of Indian origin all over the world.
Directed by Karishma Dev Dube, ‘Bittu’ is a film centring around a little 8-year-old girl who attempts to do something major by herself when her entire community turns their back on to the matter. It is inspired by the 2013 school poisoning incident.
