Kiran Rao to host party for 'Ship of Theseus' team

Director Kiran Rao will host a party for the team members associated with director Anand Gandhi's critically acclaimed directorial venture "Ship of Theseus" to "introduce them" to her "friends and colleagues".

Kiran is releasing the film in association with UTV Motion Pictures in India July 19.

"Anand and I have become close friends in a very short span of time. I thought it would be nice to introduce him and his cast and crew to our friends and colleagues," Kiran, who directed "Dhobi Ghat", said in a statement.

Kicked about the project, she feels the entire team is very talented and has done a great job in the film that won the best film award at the recently concluded 12th Transylvania International Film Festival.

A story about human values, "Ship of Theseus" features three characters - an experimental photographer, ailing intellectual monk and a stock broker.

Aida Elkashef, Neeraj Kabi, Sohum Shah, Amba Sanyal, Faraz Khan, Vinay Shukla and Sameer Shukla are part of the film's cast.
