The narrative of ‘Anuja’ revolves around a nine-year-old girl called Anuja, who works alongside her older sister, Palak, in a back-alley garment factory.
The plot follows Anuja as she faces a life-altering decision that will impact both her future and her family’s well-being. The film has garnered attention and support of stars including Priyanka Chopra and Guneet Monga.
Priyanka Chopra, who is one of those backing the film, shared her thoughts on the project: “This beautiful film shines a spotlight on a subject that affects millions of children around the world, who are faced with the impossible decision between a future they cannot yet see and the immediate realities of their present.
