Made as a romance with Urdu poetry, Ghalib narrates the story of two lovers who bond over their shared love of the language. A potential love story begins to develop within the confines of a library with love notes left behind in the poetry books by the legends of the past. <br><br> The film has its moments of humour and is an attempt to adopt a unique manner for a story which is not entirely new. When the scene is set in a setting as romantic (and romanticised) as the works of Ghalib, Faiz and Mir, to name a few, can anything really go wrong?

I Saw is an internal exploration. It seeks to blur the lines between fact and fiction, dreams and reality, real and unreal. The desire to produce a complex screenplay to complement the storytelling is an

Overall, it is a devoted attempt to share its story and plot with the audience, while also paving the path for more projects by the team in the future.
