The way the films have been curated according to specific themes is quite innovative and inspiring. I was quite pleased to have my films included in this week’s collection of “introspective” films. This theme is perfect for both my films and I would like the audience to go on an inner journey and discover their own meanings.”

Bhushan added , “I can’t help but add that,much as it sounds like a cliché given that everything is viewed under the lens of the ongoing pandemic, introspection has become the core of our lives since last year. This unprecedented situation has left humanity no option but to try and seek answers within themselves. I hope these films can unveil new perspectives in helping us discover deeper meaning to the mysteries of life.”
