Kashmiri Film in Delhi

Srinagar
Jan 29, 2006:

The first Kashmiri digital feature film, Akh Daleel Loolech, is being screened at the India Habital centre here this evening. The 80-minute Kashmiri Language flim has been subtitled in English.

Directed by young Kashmiri director, Aarshad Mushtaq Akh Daleel Loolech is a love story against the backdrop of late 19th century Kashmir when jagirdari (feudal) system and begaar (forced labour) was prevalent in the region.

The story weaves into its main plot, which is a story of a boy and a girl trying to cut across the class distinction and follow their dreams, a story of an agricultural village and its inhabitants battling hard realities of their survival.

While Akh Daleel Loolech is the first Kashmiri digital film, it is also any Kashmiri film to be made in the last two decades.

The producers of the film say Akh Daleel Loolech is a small attempt "to grab the attention of the people instigating the brains in this field of art to come up with many more such ventures so as to fill the void where there are no artistic impressions burnt on a film roll."
