The Bright Day

The Bright Day’ by  Mohit Takalkar tells the story of a young man named Shiv who has a very supportive family, a close group of friends and leads a normal life; but he leaves all these family bonding and sets out on a journey to discover what he seeks in the outside world. He enjoys adventure and freedom and also learns different philosophies about life.

Theseus’ Ship

‘Theseus’ Ship’ directed by Anand Gandhi tells four different stories together -- of a brilliant blind photographer, a monk’s ethics put to test; an obsessive compulsive clockmaker and a young stock broker.

“The title is an illusion to the philosophical paradox. Each character has a strong ideological philosophy, in a constant state of introspection like the blind photographer who is constant dilemma to access her own art, that constant dilemma of whether your art is great or not attracted me to the subject,” Gandhi said.
