Director Statement

I have lived in beautiful country South Korea for more than 8 years. I have travelled most of the places. But DMZ has affected me most with it's history. Korean Peninsula has faced most of the difficulties in past and stood against all odds.
It's cultural and historical attachment with India compelled me to think and create a saga of Korean War with an Indian perspective . For me Korean war is loss of humanity and loss of Korean people. Where Indian emotion can only support and console Korean souls with it's honest human gestures.
