Award-winning Indian filmmaker Vinod Kapri's эPihu' is seeking entry into the Guinness Book of World Record as the only film having just one character in it throughout, played by a two-year-old child actor.

"Pihu is based on true events. The film is about a little girl, played by two-year-old Myra Vishwakarma, trapped in an apartment alone with her dead mother," Director Vinod Kapri told Sputnik.

​The trailer of the film launched last week beautifully captures how the hungry child ravages through the refrigerator, microwave, and the stove in the lookout for food, oblivious of her mother's dead body lying in the bedroom. The thrilling trailer also captures edgy moments when the child's destiny swings between life and death.

The film was officially selected for Vancouver, Palmsprings, Iran, Morocco, and Germany film festivals. At Morocco film festival ‘Pihu' won the ‘Best Film' award. The film will be released on 16th November 2018 worldwide.
