I have a passion for content based cinema. This is my second cinematic journey. Basically I am a TV Anchor but I consider myself a born writer-director. I make contemporary content based shorts for social awareness because I believe in the power of Pen and the impact of Cinema. My short docu film “FEED OR BLEED INDIA” deals with the fight between Hunger and Hygiene the BEGGAR WOMEN go through living on the streets in India. Shot in various parts and cities in shivering winters and scorching summers, this Black & White short film with a dash of colour brings out the real plight with periods. A woman is a woman she has the right to dignity and the fight just begins here. The nerve wracking question “If she is given a Sanitary Pad or a Roti (Indian Flat Bread) what would she pick up first ? And it goes like- “Should I feed myself or let me bleed” ?

I think I am a born writer-director. I make contemporary content based shorts for social awareness because I believe in the power of Pen and impact of Cinema.

Director's Statement

I wanted to make this film in black & white because it represents the dark, dull and dirty/unhygienic life of homeless beggar women. But menstruation bleeding they still have to deal with while sleeping on roads. I shot for days and months through out the whole year to capture extreme summers and winters in different cities of India. There are lot of films being made on menstruation but nobody cares about beggar women how they deal with their periods living on streets. They deal with usually hardship like hunger on top of it personal hygiene and periods nothing can be so hard and harsh on being a woman. Its very easy to say that we will rather be clean than being full but bhooke pet bajan bhi nahi hote----to saaf safai kaha se, means-Culture of cleanliness is nothing in front of hunger. Nothing is bigger than hunger. Hunger is the prime center of all living beings on this planet. PERIOD.
