It’s celebration time for the talented actor whose film has already had a good festival run in the US. A New Christmas is based on an ethnic version of Christmas, as seen through the eyes of Indian and Black protagonists. A New Christmas is the first of its kind in a space usually occupied by white Christmas characters. “My goal is to have a holiday release in 2021 in India. It has to be released during Thanksgiving, Christmas, year-end, etc.” says Prashantt, who has made Mumbai his home post his marriage to an Indian girl called Mansi.
