She might have got “selected” to play Pihu when she was 2, but when the movie was shot she was 5 or 6 – and she clearly acts and looks that age on the screen. Advertising her a “2” on all the movie material is fraudulent.
Mike Hoy YOU GOT IT ALL WRONG.. SHE WAS ONLY 29 MONTHS OLD WHEN THE FILM WAS SHOT BUT WAS ONLY RELEASED IN 2018 WHEN SHE WAS ALREADY 6. UGOKKKK! š
Indeed a very good movie. Love that little Pihu…
