Indian actor and filmmaker Manohara has had an inspirational journey. Hailing from humble circumstances in Bengaluru, southern India, Manohara was picked out of school and cast by filmmaker Prithvi Konanur in “Railway Children” (2016), which won him best child actor at India’s National Film Awards.
Manohara went on to act in supporting roles in Konanur’s Busan and Hainan selection “Where Is Pinki?” (2020) and Busan, Hong Kong and Goa title “Seventeeners,” on which he also assisted.
“Bird of a Different Feather” (“Mikka Bannada Hakki”) is based on Sonia S’s autobiography of the same name. Written by Manohara and Sonia S, the film is selected at the Shanghai International Film Festival where it has five nominations at the Asian New Talent Awards.
