‘Seher’ is a heartfelt film, bringing to life a quiet mellowness on screen. The entirety of it is a conversation between Abhay and Hussna, a conversation that begins at a very pivotal point in the night for both characters. 

The ensuing exchange offers an earnest exploration of grief, loss, death, heartbreak, and some more. As they catch up, we hear of the many tribulations that afflict their lives in the form of infidelity, the uncertainty of life for a freelancer, financial troubles, the obstacles presented by the pandemic, mental health issues, and failure in love. 

The myriad emotions are shared without overwhelming the narrative. Even though we never see the two characters together in the same physical space, their palpable chemistry portrays the film’s reality with conviction and ease. The thread that ties the film as one is held tightly in place by a beautiful exploration of a Platonic friendship, and the idea of people saving each other not by grand gestures, but by simply sharing small, simple pockets of bonding, care, and affection.

Seher | Short Film of the Day

A young boy, Munna wants to desperately buy a balloon, but gets rejected by his mother every time he
asks for one. Finally, Munna decides if his mother won't buy it for him, he would get it himself. To collect enough money for the same, he starts working as a daily wage labourer in a field. What could
potentially take a turn as a dismal comment on poverty, inequality or child labour, becomes a rather
amusing scenario because Munna only works for five days, makes the money he needs for the
balloon and royally announces his resignation to his boss. 
The boy playing Munna is adorable, and the delightful music and colour in the film make it a joyride. It is
also a sweet tale of a mother and her child, along with being a film that would bring a smile to your face.
