CASTING CALL! Plus a ZOOM tomorrow 10/03!

HELLO EVERYONE!

I had to do a self tape photo and they told me “not to smile”

For those of you who backed our Kickstarter (and have now entered Rekha’s Hot People Hall of Fame) are slowly inching toward something called “a movie” and as such, we need to cast some roles! Which means it’s time for a…

CASTING CALL!!!

a casting call for Tamil speakers, oh my!

If you know anyone who fits the bill, send them our way! We’d love to audition everyone we can, especially people the mainstream film industry has chosen not to find yet 🙃

I also wanted to give you a heads up about something kind of cool…

… which is that we are doing our first BACKERS-ONLY ZOOM tomorrow, October 3rd! Me, director Sandeep Parikh, and our producers will host an intimate, one-hour conversation where we share pre-production updates and do a little Q&A. We want all our esteemed (and hot) backers to feel connected to the journey as we bring this story to the screen.

So if you’re already a backer, you should have gotten an email about this yesterday! (And if not, check the Kickstarter page under “updates” and you’ll see all the info on how to access the session.)

And if you are tantalized by this offer and are not YET a backer, did you know there’s now a WAY TO BECOME A BACKER EVEN 6 MONTHS AFTER THE CAMPAIGN? WHAT THE HELL!!

As the dinosaurs are trying to say, just pop over to RekhaMovie.com to sign up!!

MORE SOON!
Rekha
