"I am extremely happy to know that the Locarno Film Festival has selected Mohenjo Daro as their Closing Film at the Piazza Grande! When Lagaan was screened at the same Piazza, on a giant screen, one of the biggest in the world, it was an out-of-the-world experience to see an audience of 8000 plus of different nationalities, applaud the film. I am excitedly looking forward to Locarno this time with Mohenjo Daro," quoted director Ashutosh Gowariker.

Produced by Siddharth Roy Kapur and Sunita Gowariker, the film will release worldwide on August 12, 2016.
