The trailer for Australian comedy “How to Talk Australians: The Movie” has been released.
Based on on the hit web series of the same name that became a viral sensation and amassed more than 12 million YouTube views, the film follows the students of the Delhi College of Linguistics as they leave the classroom behind and embark on a journey Down Under.
When their flight is diverted to the regional town of Dubbo due to severe storms – and their tour leader is detained by customs – the group unexpectedly discover the ‘real’ Australia, despite never quite making it to Sydney, Melbourne, Uluru or Adelaide.
The film offers a humorous and lighthearted take on Australian culture through the eyes of a group of Indian call centre workers, promising audiences from all backgrounds a wildly entertaining and laugh-out-loud experience.
Watch the trailer below.
“How to Talk Australians: The Movie” is the first Australian feature film to feature a primarily Indian-Australian lead cast, led by Rohan Ganju (“The Emu War,” “Urvi Went to an All Girls School”), Ria Patel, Robert Santiago and Vikrant Narain.
