Neelkanthi – Day 937

By Uncategorized

neelkanthi-3

Reviving dying art forms and weaving a story with it was quite a task, but it shaped up well for Kulvindar Bakshi who is excited for his upcoming production Neelkanthi and what’s more he was able to rope in able actor Sandeep Kulkarni as well. Bakshi says, “The play is about the plight of a common man and to make it interesting we fused various art forms such as Thang – Ta, Chahu, Keibul Lamjao and many more”

Call it coincidence that Kulkarni had been looking for an opportunity to return to theatre and Neelkanthi was the right vehicle to return after eight years.” Another interesting facet about the play will be live painting by artist Manoj Maurya followed by an exhibition.

Ek Kanth Vishpayee connects the very existence of God and human in a chain. Lord Shiva is feared for his anger and manuscripts reveal that God exists in human beings. Each one of us is capable of disturbing the balance of nature and each one of us can control it if we swallow the poison of suffering. It is a matter of perspective.

MAMI 417 Miles – Day 932

By Films

mami-logo-menuFormer college buddies, Tanveer and Srinivasan, have lost touch over the years. Tanveer, a 9 to 5 Silicon Valleyite, lives a very western, suburban life. Srinivasan is an emerging director of independent cinema in Mumbai. On learning that Srinivasan’s latest film has been invited to a festival in Los Angeles, Tanveer offers to drive him there. On their road trip from San Francisco to Los Angeles, they realize that even though their paths in life have diverged widely, some things have not changed. The journey down the Pacific Coast highway is a journey of discovery.

Directed by Mainak Dhar who started as an AD to filmmaker Prakash Jha during the making of Gangajaal before moving to Los Angeles with the goal of watching as many movies as possible during the next few years and he did. Life and love happened to Dhar simultaneously. He became an editor and then filmmaker of a short film Honk for Steve inspired from a neighborhood character. Dhar plans to make three zero budget films in the next three years and 417 Miles is the first in the series.
