New Delhi [India], July 14: This Mother’s Day, acclaimed filmmaker, writer, and musician Sandeep Malik released his latest Bollywood film, Khali Lifafa—a deeply emotional portrayal of the unspoken yet profound bond between a mother and her child.
Released on May 11, 2025, the film stars Sandeep Malik alongside Anjali Rana and is directed by Yogesh Kumar Mishra.

“Khali Lifafa is not just a film—it’s an emotion,” says Malik. “It’s my way of honoring mothers everywhere, especially mine. This story is close to my heart, and I believe it will connect deeply with anyone who’s ever felt the love of a parent.”
More than a film, Khali Lifafa is a reflection on family values and a reminder of the quiet sacrifices made by parents that often go unnoticed. It urges viewers to pause and reconnect with their past, their roots, and especially their loved ones.
