My family has run a regional Hindi newspaper with socialist ideals since 1959. For a decade, I was aware of the rising farmer suicides but felt powerless to act\u2014when has a film ever brought about perceptible change? Seeking answers, I travelled across Maharashtra\u2019s Beed district, one of the hardest-hit areas, and met grieving families. Recently widowed women, their tears exhausted, grief hanging in silence \u2014 being a passerby felt criminal; filming seemed even crueller. Yet, I noticed fewer suicides among women farmers. I met resilient women like Sanjivani who take care of their families, are responsible for repaying their husbands\u2019 loans after their suicides, and rebuild their lives from scratch while dealing with grief and social ostracization. What stood out was their conscientiousness in supporting other women in similar circumstances. We wondered: could there be a space for fostering such friendships and healing?<\/em><\/p>\n<p><em>Over five years, our bond transcended the filmmaker-subject relationship. We shared everyday life \u2013medical checkups, marriage arrangements, waiting for the birth of a calf, rushing to a distant hospital during a daughter\u2019s labour, sudden deaths and funerals, rebuilding homes destroyed by rains by hand.<\/em><\/p>\n<p><em>In 2022, during Rakhi, Sanjivani and I became brother and sister. Sanjivani\u2019s words \u201cWhen we meet others in grief, our own becomes insignificant,\u201d became the subtext and reason for making this film.<\/em><\/p>\n<p><em>What I learned from the women far surpasses anything I can reciprocate. Their friendship gave me the strength to support my mother through grieving my aunt\u2019s death and find my courage. What began as an ideological desire became a passion for telling stories of my beloved.<\/em><\/p>\n<\/div><\/section><\/p><\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"","protected":false},"featured_media":4628,"menu_order":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","template":"","tags":[],"portfolio-category":[],"portfolio-tag":[],"portfolio_entries":[50],"class_list":["post-4387","portfolio","type-portfolio","status-publish","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","portfolio_entries-kpff2026"],"acf":[],"tpgb_featured_images":{"full":["https:\/\/www.ourcinema.in\/festival\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/3\/2025\/12\/MID_H265_UHD_R709_grading_240202.02_01_58_22.Still019-Kinshuk-Surjan.jpg.webp",1920,1037,false],"tp-image-grid":["https:\/\/www.ourcinema.in\/festival\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/3\/2025\/12\/MID_H265_UHD_R709_grading_240202.02_01_58_22.Still019-Kinshuk-Surjan.jpg-700x700.webp",700,700,true],"thumbnail":["https:\/\/www.ourcinema.in\/festival\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/3\/2025\/12\/MID_H265_UHD_R709_grading_240202.02_01_58_22.Still019-Kinshuk-Surjan.jpg-80x80.webp",80,80,true],"medium":["https:\/\/www.ourcinema.in\/festival\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/3\/2025\/12\/MID_H265_UHD_R709_grading_240202.02_01_58_22.Still019-Kinshuk-Surjan.jpg-300x162.webp",300,162,true],"medium_large":["https:\/\/www.ourcinema.in\/festival\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/3\/2025\/12\/MID_H265_UHD_R709_grading_240202.02_01_58_22.Still019-Kinshuk-Surjan.jpg-768x415.webp",768,415,true],"large":["https:\/\/www.ourcinema.in\/festival\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/3\/2025\/12\/MID_H265_UHD_R709_grading_240202.02_01_58_22.Still019-Kinshuk-Surjan.jpg-1030x556.webp",1030,556,true],"default":"https:\/\/www.ourcinema.in\/festival\/wp-content\/plugins\/the-plus-addons-for-block-editor\/assets\/images\/tpgb-placeholder.jpg"},"tpgb_post_meta_info":{"get_date":"December 31, 2025","get_modified_date":"January 13, 2026","category_list":{"post_tag":false,"portfolio-category":false,"portfolio-tag":false,"portfolio_entries":[{"term_id":50,"name":"KPFF2026","slug":"kpff2026","term_group":0,"term_taxonomy_id":50,"taxonomy":"portfolio_entries","description":"","parent":0,"count":39,"filter":"raw"}]},"comment_count":0,"post_likes":0,"post_views":0},"tpgb_post_category":{"portfolio_entries":"<a href=\"https:\/\/www.ourcinema.in\/festival\/portfolio_entries\/kpff2026\/\" alt=\"KPFF2026\"  class=\"portfolio_entries-kpff2026\">KPFF2026<\/a> "},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.ourcinema.in\/festival\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/portfolio\/4387","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.ourcinema.in\/festival\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/portfolio"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.ourcinema.in\/festival\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/portfolio"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.ourcinema.in\/festival\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=4387"}],"version-history":[{"count":5,"href":"https:\/\/www.ourcinema.in\/festival\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/portfolio\/4387\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":5078,"href":"https:\/\/www.ourcinema.in\/festival\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/portfolio\/4387\/revisions\/5078"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.ourcinema.in\/festival\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/4628"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.ourcinema.in\/festival\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=4387"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.ourcinema.in\/festival\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=4387"},{"taxonomy":"portfolio-category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.ourcinema.in\/festival\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/portfolio-category?post=4387"},{"taxonomy":"portfolio-tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.ourcinema.in\/festival\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/portfolio-tag?post=4387"},{"taxonomy":"portfolio_entries","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.ourcinema.in\/festival\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/portfolio_entries?post=4387"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
