Prateek, grandson of late Hindi film director Promod Chakraborty, told PTI his film had been shot in Australia and Santiniketan in West Bengal.
The film would be premiered on August 1 at Ritchie Theatre in the University of New South Wales with a red carpet reception befitting its campus story theme.
Two days later, it will be released in that country and in India simultaneously.
"From Sydney With Love" tells the story of a small town girl from West Bengal who accepts a scholarship in New South Wales to pursue her post-graduation.
There she makes friends including Lubaina, prankster Raj and Suhail and also Rohit, a friendly fellow student in the university.
"In Australia extensive shooting was done in the Sydney Opera House, University of New South Wales, Bondi beach, Cicular Quay and Central Station, the director said.
The film was also shot extensively at Bolpur in Santiniketan from where the student hails, Chakroborty said.
"We needed to keep in focus these two places, one representing the cultural values of the east and the other representing those of the west," he said on the sidelines of a press meet last evening. MORE
