By: Jayanti Oza
On February 15, 2025, the much-anticipated poster for The Unknown Mind was officially revealed at the Taj Mahal Indian Restaurant in Carol Stream, IL. The film, produced by Raj Patel and Bhojraj Nawani under the banner of Nostrum Entertainment 5, promises to offer a compelling and thought-provoking narrative.
Directed by Vinod Tewari and starring Vindhya Tiwari in the lead role, The Unknown Mind is an emotionally gripping story inspired by true events. Conceptualized and written by Raj Patel with a screenplay by Vandana Tiwari, the film explores the life of a person grappling with a rare and life-altering mental disorder.
Known for their bold storytelling in films like The Conversion and Teri Bhabhi Hai Pagle, the makers are once again tackling a socially relevant issue. The Unknown Mind aims to raise awareness about a prominent mental disorder that affects millions globally but remains largely under-recognized in India. In the U.S., 5.1 out of every 1,000 people suffer from this condition, while the number in India is 3 out of 1,000. Alarmingly, 72% of affected individuals in rural India and 83.3% in urban non-metro areas go untreated due to a lack of awareness, even among healthcare professionals.
With a powerful and deeply moving storyline, The Unknown Mind sheds light on the psychological and emotional toll of the disorder, offering an eye-opening perspective on the challenges faced by patients and their families. The film sparks crucial conversations around mental health, especially within the Indian community and diaspora.
Filming for The Unknown Mind is set to begin on April 10, 2025, in Chicago, USA. Stay tuned for more updates as this groundbreaking project moves closer to its release, poised to leave a lasting impact on audiences worldwide.
