    Anyone who has spent the hostel life in India post nineties wouldn’t have missed the exotic intoxication of Kandisa, or the melodic persuasions of Maa Rewa.

    Have you ever woken up, from a deep slumber at the dead of the night, thanks to sound of the whistle or the “thak, thak” of the wooden stick of the locality / housing society guard? This was the topic Jaideep Varma dealt with in one of his write ups for a well-known English magazine some years ago. And in it lay the germ of an idea for a film, a film for which...
