What does 'BLACK AND WHITE' mean? Two colours ? Two Extremes? Two polarities? Obviously about contrasts, 'BLACK AND WHITE' epitomises the 'black and white' psyche- a psyche that refuses to see shades beyond the two. A mind that is literally 'colour-blind'. Imagine when the colours of rainbow confront a man whose mind has always been conditioned to see only black and white. It is nothing short of an 'earth- shaking experience'.same can be said of my experience while making such a realistic film- which confronted my psyche with new never-before nuances- be it the story ,the characters, the conflict , the drama or the final resolution.
It has left me emotionally elevated- different kind of elation from mainstream cinema.
'BLACK AND WHITE' is an emotional Drama that entertains for sure but leaves the audience with a lofty message for all humanity- in search of harmony amidst diversity. In that sense,'BLACK AND WHITE' is an idea whose time has come. Just what the world needs, perhaps.And when a thought-provoking theme such as this one comes straight from the heart, it holds a special place in my mindscape as it has filled my world with so many colours!
