In the Name of Love!

As per a recent report, thousands of girls from Kerala and Mangalore from Hindu and Christian communities have been converted to Islam, most of them ending in Syria, Afghanistan and other ISIS and Taliban influenced areas. There is hardly any visible action being taken being taken on this. No specific data available. Police and administration are muffled. Government is in denial mode. As a result, rampant religious conversion through a deep-rooted indoctrination network has taken over Kerala like fire in hay.

Ripples under the Skin

'Ripples Under the Skin' is a story of contestations - contestation of space, resources, claims, narratives... of a community struggling to carve out a living out of a dying profession contending with a city that both embraces and marginalizes, of a profession that thrives of supplying water to homes... water that doesn't discriminate yet over whom many wars have been fought... wars of caste, class, religion... of muslim migrant workers supplying water to homes that are inviting and uninviting, of homes that they are sustained over the labour of these people, yet homes that the same people can never claim as their own, of memory and forgetting, of dreams and spectres... above all, this is a story of struggles.

Kadaknath

All hell breaks loose when two separate guests coming for completely different purposes accidentally interchange their visiting time.

His stay-at-home brother-in-law has posted a YouTube video inviting anyone who wants to buy their special-breed black chicken. The royal family is expected in the morning but they delay their arrival to show-off, and the chicken buyers show up in the morning to crack the deal early. Confusion becomes an understatement when the chicken buyers are assumed to be the groom and afterwards the royal family as cheap bird lovers.

The Frog is the Pond's Witness

A photoplay that depicts various social performances: conversation, labour, gossip, revelry, dinner, conspiracy - that transpire on the sidelines of an annual religious congregation inside a New Delhi public park. The observer declares the distance of their vantage point from the event of the ceremony and employs this facility to map the topographies of inclusion and exclusion that exist across the parkscape. The title of the film refers to an old Punjabi proverb: 'Khuaje da Guwah Daddu ('ਖੁਆਜੇ ਦਾ ਗੁਵਾਹ ਡੱਡੂ)', which describes the frog who claims to be - much like the filmmaker and the park - a witness of the life within the pond. The phrase is doused in lament, though, for how can a frog describe without bias a system that ultimately stands to benefit it.
