Chandran Rutnam is currently directing Rizana – A Caged Bird, starring Indian actress Varalaxmi Sarathkumar alongside Oscar and Emmy Award-winning British actor Jeremy Irons. Rutnam, acclaimed for his work as line producer on Steven Spielberg’s Indiana Jones and the Temple of Doom, now brings Rizana – A Caged Bird to life—a film that courageously tells the heartbreaking true story of Rizana Nafeek, a young Sri Lankan woman whose dream of a better future ended in tragedy. Yet, her spirit rises as a symbol of resilience and a call for justice. More than a film, Rizana – A Caged Bird stands as a powerful reminder of the human stories that must be heard.
