Netflix announces premiere of Oscar-nominated live action short film Anuja in February

On Wednesday night, Netflix announced the premiere of Oscar-nominated live action short film ‘Anuja’ on February 5, 2025 bringing this poignant and inspiring story to a global audience across 190 countries. Crafted by the husband-and-wife duo Adam J. Graves (Director, Producer) and Suchitra Mattai (Producer), Anuja offers a hopeful and heartfelt tale of resilience, love, and opportunity amidst hardship.

The trailer follows Anuja, a gifted nine-year-old girl, and her seventeen-year-old sister, Palak, as they work in a back-alley garment factory. When a compassionate teacher offers Anuja the chance to attend an elite boarding school, the sisters face challenges that test their bond and resilience, culminating in a life-altering decision—one faced by countless young girls worldwide.

Expressing her excitement, Mindy Kaling, producer of Anuja, shared, "It is a dream come true to have Anuja on Netflix, where it can be seen by the worldwide audience it deserves. I’m so grateful to Bela Bajaria and Netflix India for seeing what I saw in this beautiful short film!” Adam J. Graves added, “Suchitra and I are incredibly grateful that Anuja has found a home on Netflix.
