“What attracted us to ‘Demon Hunters’ is that it is genuinely different. It brings together India and Taiwan in a way that is energetic, entertaining and accessible to an international audience,” said Sewnarain.

Arjan Bajwa, JC Lin, Regina Lei, Jack Kao, Harry Chang and Jayanta Meetei star. Chen’s film mixes action and comedy with a supernatural streak, and builds its story around the collision of two cultures.

The film first played in Taiwan through Vie Show Cinemas. Indian audiences then got accesspple TV, Amazon, YouTube and other digital services

Cindy Shyu of Taiwan’s Light House Productions produced the independent feature, which also had support from the Taiwanese government. Gayathiri Guliani, founder of India’s Kleos Entertainment Group, came aboard as co-producer.

“The Netherlands release is an important milestone for us because it brings ‘Demon Hunters’ back to the big screen in a new international market,” said Shyu. “From Taiwan to India, the U.S. and now the Netherlands, the film has continued to find audiences across cultures. That is ultimately what we hoped for when we began this India-Taiwan collaboration – to create a film that could travel.”

Guliani said the film had been designed from the start to cross borders, adding that its journey through Taiwan, India, the U.S. and the Netherlands showed “stories rooted in one culture can find resonance in another when they are driven by universal entertainment values.”

The news was unveiled on the sidelines of the Busan International Film Festival’s Asian Contents & Film Market.
