Human life has always looked beyond what is visible. Faith, a five letter word that embodies a thought process that links physical with the metaphysical. Nirvana or Moksh is the attainment of ultimate peace through enlightenment which starts with faith. Development of self into the
supreme source of energy starts with the realization that we as
individuals and even as a collective force of 6.5 billion humans are
incredibly small in this universe.
Parth,
a young and ambitious film director from Mumbai struggles with his
career but in his struggles lies his confidence, his belief that success
will surely come his way. His search for a potentially successful and
path-breaking film makes him team up with Eric, a student of
anthropology. Their
subject, ‘WAARI’ is a religious pilgrimage which is collectively made by
millions every single year in Maharashtra, India. Devotees walk for 18
days and cover 240 kilometers to meet their revered lord Krishna (Vithoba) The pilgrimage which has been going on for hundreds of years has
kept pace with modern times but the core values remain the same as they did many centuries ago.
The 18 days of journey are correlated to the 18 chapters of the Bhagwad Gita. The meaning of janm, the journey through Karm and the in the end Moksha. The film, through Parth, takes us on a exploratory trip which shows us the path that our soul seeks. Parth’s struggle with his conscience and with his friends and lover lead him eventually to a state of belief. Parth forgets everything with just one darshan and realises that truth and righteousness lead us on the path where we will eventually merge with God himself. For it is the questions that lead to answers and sometimes answers are manifestations of nothing butfaith. Ahum and ahunkaar devolve when man understands and gives himself to AUM.
MOKSSH narrates a very real and modern love story on the same backdrop . Its
not only spiritual, it gives direction to the youth of the modern world
who is lost in greed, lust, ambition, it’s a realization that somewhere
everyone is connected to their roots, culture. Beauty of relationships,
humanity, and simplicity has been depicted and
highlighted throughout the film. The
original version of this film was made in Marathi and it won 32 awards.
We have now made the Hindi version so that the message of this divine
light can be spread further and wider.
