 Naor Gilon, Ambassador of Israel to India, hosted a soiree on Wednesday that brought together distinguished figures from both the Israeli and Indian film industries to celebrate and strengthen Israel-India cultural partnership.

They are in India to promote an exciting co-production that brings together the talents of both countries, as well as to explore new avenues of collaboration.

Speaking about the event, Gilon said, “Every such event is another building block of the people-to-people connection between Israel and India.

The Bollywood debut of the Fauda actor Tsahi Halevi marks a momentous milestone in the growing cultural ties between our two ancient civilizations”.

“As we celebrate this milestone, we look forward to more collaborations bridging our rich cultures and histories, further strengthening our friendship,” he added.

The event also featured the presence of prominent leaders from the film industry of both countries. It is a powerful testament to the strong relationship and mutual commitment to fostering art and culture.

‘Fauda’ actor Tsahi Halevi is set to make his long-awaited Bollywood debut alongside Nushrratt Bharuccha in the upcoming film ‘Akeli.’

Halevi, known for his roles in acclaimed Israeli productions such as ‘Bethlehem,’ ‘Fauda,’ and ‘Line in the Sand,’ has entered the Indian film industry, adding a new layer of cultural exchange and artistic collaboration.
