The 2004 film had a screening at Berlinale, won the Best Film at Durban Film Festival and a Special Mention at Hong Kong International Film Festival but failed to get a release in India.
Hava Aney Dey was recently screened in Mumbai in a curatorial project film

Locarno Open Doors will be held alongside the 64th Locarno International Film Festival from August 6-9, 2011. Open Doors 2011 that focuses on India has selected 12 projects for its co-production lab. Partho Sen-Gupta’s Sunrise (Arunoday) is one of them. Partho has been collecting funds for Sunrise through crowd-funding. In the fourth in the series, DearCinema brings to you details about the filmmaker and the project, in the words of the filmmaker:
Sunrise tells the universal story of the loss of a child, of parental grief. The protagonist, Joshi, distressed by the disappearance of his little daughter, takes us into his dreams, nightmares and memories. He errs in the streets of Mumbai chasing an elusive figure that steals the children. The film approaches the taboo subject of child trafficking and abuse.
The film has non-linear narration and will be shot with a very small unit on Hdslr cameras fitted with Cine prime lenses.
