'In this interview, star Nazanin Boniadi talks to Sailesh Ram, editor of www.asianculturevulture.com about her role in the forthcoming ‘Hotel Mumbai’.  The film had its world premiere at the Toronto International Film Festival on September 7 2018. ‘Hotel Mumbai’ brilliantly depicts the horrible events of November 26 2008, when terrorists stormed the Taj Hotel in Mumbai and rampaged through one of India’s best known and much cherished hotels for three days. Boniadi plays a character whose family are caught up in the carnage of that terrorist attack and the film is based on the true events.   She talks about the emotional impact of the role, getting to know – and love - India and Mumbai, and her British roots.  First-time feature Australian director Anthony Maras has made an excellent film which is both sophisticated and has real depth.
