IFC Films has acquired North American rights to “Four Samosas,” a romantic comedy set in the Little India neighborhood of Los Angeles. The film premiered at this year’s Tribeca Film Festival.
IFC will release “Four Samosas” in theaters and on demand on Dec. 2, 2022.
Ravi Kapoor directs and Venk Potula leads an ensemble cast that includes Sonal Shah, Sharmita Bhattacharya, Nirvan Patnaik, Karan Soni, Summer Bishil, and Meera Simhan. The film centers on wanna-be Indian American rapper, Vinny (Potula), who along with three friends — all of them first-time thieves — plans to rob a grocery store owned by his ex-girlfriend’s father, in order to steal her wedding diamonds and disrupt her pending engagement.
“Four Samosas” was a hit with critics when it debuted at Tribeca. We Got This Covered praised its blend of genres, writing, “‘Four Samosas’ never ceases to gather momentum over its running time, feeling like a cross between indie totem ‘Clerks’ and ‘Reservoir Dogs’ minus the guns, violence, or bad language.”
IFC will release ‘Four Samosas; in theaters and on-demand on December 2nd, 2022 before landing on AMC+ and Hulu.
