Director Statement

Mrigtrishna is the search for something we already possess. Mrigtrishna is a Sanskrit word which means the thirst of a Deer. The story goes,A Kasturi Mrig(Deer) in search of a fragrance which is actually emitting from its own naval. Ignorant of this fact the deer searches for it all over the jungle but in vain.
We too as human beings seek enlightenment,eternal truth,and we seek for it outside,whereas the answers to all lies within.
