A film on the ancient Indian treatise on drama ‘Natyashastra’, credited to Sage Bharata.

A film on a festival in coastal Karnataka where women get ‘possessed’ by the ‘Siri’ spirit.

A film on an effort in Bellary, Karnataka to run a school according to the principles of Indian icons of the last century, Acharya Vinoba and Mohandas Karamchand Gandhi.

‘Films Division’ is one of the largest documentary films producers in the world. Although at times it was a bit painful dealing with the bureaucracy of this government organisation, these films have helped me to touch base with the celluloid medium. The sound of the motor running in the film camera is too dear to be forgotten.

These films have been widely screened in the theatres across India in various Indian languages.
