When the international filmmaker learned about PIHU, he asked his team to get in touch with Vinod Kapri as he wanted to meet the director and the girl who played PIHU. He was very keen on understanding how difficult or easy it was for him to direct a 2-year-old. He was all praises and congratulated Vinod Kapri for doing an extraordinary work. He told the director that he will make sure to watch PIHU when he comes back to India.

PIHU's trailer has been appreciated by people across the globe by reaching over 2 million views. PIHU is a film is the most anticipated thriller about 2 years old girl trapped in an apartment alone. It is one of a kind in every aspect as it is the only film in the history of cinema to have just one character throughout, played by a 2-year-old child. It is a gripping thriller and will have audiences on the edge of their seats till the last frame.

Pihu is directed by national award-winning filmmaker Vinod Kapri, produced by Ronnie Screwvala and Siddharth Roy Kapur under their banners RSVP and Roy Kapur Films respectively.

Director Vonid Kapri said, `It is always a happy moment when a renowned filmmaker appreciated your hard work It was an honour meeting Majid Majidi and I am glad that he is interested in watching the film..`
