Guptaa said, “Our short film A Long Night received recognition at several national and international film festivals, winning prestigious honours including Best Film, Best Director, Best Female Actor, Best Male Actor, and several other awards.” “The success of that film inspired us to produce our feature film Murder at Madh, which is currently in post-production.”
“During this journey, I met many talented women who always wanted to experience the glamour and entertainment industry but never received the right opportunity.
Sonniya N. Guptaa also said, “The finalists of Beauties of India looked absolutely stunning and radiant, all thanks to the exceptional makeup and styling by our esteemed Beauty Partner, Sonali Shinde’s Make Me Over Academy.
