Sikkim to South Korea: Tribeny’s ‘Shape of Momo’ Makes Waves at BIFF 2025!

Tribeny Rai, a proud alumna of SRFTI’s Direction & Screenplay Writing department, has made India and the Indian Nepali-speaking community proud with the selection of her debut feature film, ‘Shape of Momo’ (Chhora Jastai), at the prestigious 30th Busan International Film Festival (BIFF) 2025 in South Korea! This powerful story of a woman’s journey to overcome patriarchy and forge her own path has already garnered national and international attention, shining a spotlight on the beautiful state of Sikkim. We’re thrilled to see Tribeny represent India on the world stage and wish her all the best for this incredible opportunity!

‘Shape of Momo’ is not just a film; it’s a movement. It’s a testament to the talent and creativity of the Nepali-speaking community in India and a reflection of the rich cultural heritage of Sikkim. The film has already garnered national and international attention, shining a spotlight on Sikkim!
