Banaras, A Mystic Love Story

Banaras is not a destination its a journey of our lives. If you go to watch this movie for a ready-made solution or only to "kill" two hours, you may get disappointed. Banaras is aimed to create a thirst for something one is generally uncomfortable to explore.

The path to magnificence is paved with pain

Life is synonym to pain. As long as there is life, there is pain.
Tulsidas said, "Janamat marat dusah dukh hoi",..meaning that living and dying, both are extremely painful.

It is certain that one who is born shall die. We all know it in theory. We understnad it intellectually, yet we never believe in it. We all would like to somehow evade it. Death is for others.... Pain is for others.... I am invincible. Somehow, for me everything would turn out diferently.

We are never prepared for the death.

However, one among billions, who have the courage to look into the eyes of the death and embrace it smiling, achieve the splendor of immortality.




Likes of Jesus Christ, Mahatma Gandhi, Martin Luther King and Sohams, choose to walk on the path of such magnificence even though in complete knowledge of the "pain".

I bow to such spirit.
