Cactus Pears (Marathi: Sabar Bonda) is a 2025 romantic drama film, written and directed by Rohan Parashuram Kanawade in his feature directorial debut. A co-production between India, Canada and the United Kingdom, the film centres on Anand (Bhushaan Manoj), a man from the city who returns to his hometown following a death in the family, and reconnects romantically with his childhood friend Balya (Suraaj Suman).
The film premiered at the 2025 Sundance Film Festival, the only Indian film in competition and the first Marathi language film ever to premiere at the festival; it would go on to win the World Cinema Grand Jury Prize Dramatic at the festival.
