Step aside Bollywood blockbusters, because Palash Sen’s latest musical short film “Jaane Khuda” is here to steal the show. This captivating 9-minute journey explores the complexities of emotions and relationships in modern-day India, set against the backdrop of the picturesque town of Bir in Himachal Pradesh.
The film follows the lives of Zayn, played by the legendary Palash Sen himself, and Piu, portrayed by the talented debutante Preeti Verma. Zayn is a divorced BnB host, while Piu is a young tourist who has recently been betrayed by her partner during a brief mountain getaway. Both of them are trying to escape from their pasts and their current circumstances, with no expectations for the future.
However, their journey through the enchanting landscapes of Himachal takes a surprising turn when they stumble upon each other. As they explore the town together, they not only discover each other but also their own true selves.
Accompanied by a soothing ballad from Palash Sen’s band Euphoria, this film is a perfect blend of storytelling and musical expression. Palash Sen has dedicated this film to his late mentor, the legendary filmmaker Pradeep Sarkar, known for his iconic Euphoria music videos such as “Maaeri”, “Dhoom Pichuck”, “Aana Meri Gully”, and “Mehfuz”.
“In modern-day India, love and relationships are a completely different ball game. As much as people would like to believe that they are free, it’s their own insecurities and self-doubt that puts the shackles on them. We have tried our best to tell maybe our story or maybe yours,” said Palash Sen.
