MUMBAI:
Olivier Nakache and Éric Toledano’s The
Intouchables, which won Omar Sy the César award
for best actor, is to be released in India on 13 July.
Sy
won the Cesar award, France's national award, for his
portrayal of Driss in the film by defeating Jean Dujardin,
nominated for The Artist.
The
film is being released in India by the Tanweer group.
The
Intouchables also won the Grand Prix award for best
film and the award for best actor to both Francois
Cluzet and Sy at the Tokyo International Film Festival
2011.
After
a paragliding accident, when Philippe, a rich Parisian
aristocrat, needs a live-in caretaker, he encounters
many clones of qualified people in an interview. Driss,
a strapping inner-city crook, shows up for this interview
with the intention of being rejected.
However,
impressed with his irreverence, Philippe hires him.
What follows is the formation of a great bond between
the two, as they help each other across some of the
challenges in store for them.
