A Story of Love, Loss and Identity

As Imtiaz Ali describes it:

“‘Tum mere paas hote ho goya,
Jab koi doosra nahin hota’
(‘You are with me, however,
When there is no one else’)
– Momin”

He continues,
“Can love really be lost? Can home be taken away from someone’s heart?

This film has a big heart. It has a large canvas, yet is very personal. It is a story of a boy and a girl, but also a country.

Wish us well as we dive into the currents of this dynamic story, we hope to emerge next year with a touching cinematic experience in a theatre near you.
