Roy’s Delhi Campus Satire Returns as Restored Berlinale Premiere

Arundhati Roy’s 1989 English-language campus satire In Which Annie Gives It Those Ones is being restored by the Film Heritage Foundation for a Berlinale Classics world premiere in 2026, with a March Indian theatrical release to attract younger audiences. The film follows a group of Delhi architecture students, including Roy (as Radha) and Shah Rukh Khan in his screen debut, blending Hindi-English dialogue with witty critiques of bureaucracy and campus life, and is celebrated as a landmark in Indian cinema that still feels relevant to today’s institutions and youth culture.
