A Tale of Unrequited Love
The heart of this artistic creation draws inspiration from the tale of unrequited love that intertwined the lives of literary luminaries Amrita Pritam and Sahir Ludhianvi. This narrative transcends time and borders, weaving a universal story of love, separation, and the depths of human emotions.
Visual Artistry
Director Parasher Baruah elevates these evocative ghazals through captivating videos, brought to life by acclaimed actors Prachi Desai and Som Chattopadhyay. Set against the backdrop of colonial Pondicherry and Mumbai, the videos reimagine the golden era of Indian cinema. They seamlessly blend classic romance with contemporary storytelling.
Melodic Beauty
Composer Rajesh Singh’s melodies, inspired by Hindustani classical music’s “evening ragas,” resonate with melancholic beauty. The intricate rhythms and harmonious chords underscore the profound emotions within each note. Singh’s compositions masterfully bridge traditional and Western influences, capturing the delicate balance of pain and acceptance portrayed in the ghazals.
