Anupria Goenka to make her Cannes debut with Bombay Stories; reveals, “Proud of War and Tiger Zinda Hai; thoroughly enjoyed shooting for them…Dhurandhar was a fabulous film”

May is an important month for Anupria Goenka. Her movie, IIZ: Indian Institute Of Zombies, was released on May 15, which is her first time appearing in a movie theater after four years. She will end the month in a happy way as she celebrates her birthday on May 29. That's not the only reason to be excited. She also has another special event this month—she will make her first appearance at the Cannes Film Festival this year.

Anupria Goenka told source exclusively, "I am going to Cannes for the premiere of the film called Bombay Stories.

 It's being shown in the market section; it's not part of the official festival lineup. Still, this will be my first time visiting Cannes."

She added, "After that, I plan to travel around.

 I haven't visited much of Europe; I've only been to the UK. So, for my birthday this year, I want to do something different and visit other countries (smiles)."

She also shared, "I will leave for Cannes on May 18, after IIZ: Indian Institute Of Zombies releases on May 15.

 Wish me luck (smiles)!"

Anupria on YRF Spy Universe

Anupria Goenka has been part of two successful films from the YRF Spy Universe—Tiger Zinda Hai (2017) and War (2019).

 The franchise has come under scrutiny after the release of another spy film, Dhurandhar (2025) and its sequel, Dhurandhar The Revenge (2026).

When asked about the criticism towards the YRF Spy Universe, Anupria said, "I don't know much about it.

 The way I live and work, I don't really find out what's happening. I am very proud of both War and Tiger Zinda Hai and I really enjoyed shooting for them. I also liked watching Pathaan (2023). For me, War and Tiger Zinda Hai were beautiful, fun movies. Dhurandhar, on the other hand, is a different kind of entertaining film. There should be space for everything. Everyone has their own taste in movies. I really enjoyed Dhurandhar and felt it was a great film. I'm happy that such work is being done in India. At the same time, I have a lot of respect for War and Tiger Zinda Hai, not just because I was part of them, but also because I loved them as a viewer."
