The film, which is set in the backdrop of insurgency-hit Kashmir conflicts of 1995 and civilian disappearances, was previously screened at the 19th Busan International Film Festival.
The Shahid Kapoor-Tabu starrer movie will be screened in the festival, starting from March 19, alongside Ketan Mehta's 'Rang Rasiya', disability drama 'Margarita With A Straw', Pakistani film 'Zinda Bhaag' and Nisha Pahuja's 'The World Before Her' among others.
The 10-day festival will pay tribute to Rajesh Khanna and conduct a choreography master class from Farah Khan.
LAFF will come to an end with 'Bhopal: A Prayer for Rain', a historical-drama film set amidst the 1984 Bhopal gas tagedy.
