Metro', taking us through nooks and corners of Singapore in 'Gangster' or even taking the audience through the beautiful hill-station of Darjeeling in one of his most successful films 'Barfi!', Anurag Basu is one of those filmmakers who always tries to treat his story like a painting unfolding on big-screen.

His film 'Ludo' has been selected to be screened at the Indian Film Festival of Melbourne
