Kanishka films... a venture one has been trying to work on since quite some time now. In fact having already made a film under this banner, actually launching it out now is just a tad too late. the idea is to be able to make films and help make films which one is proud of. The final film, I believe, is just a by-product. The filmmaking process itself is too much. its just too much to learn on just there.
The point of this blog post was to probably just be able to define what one wants out of this label... i doNT think i really know what one want s of it... it is basically part of a journey, a journey to try and understand cinema, and everything else that s coming on way...
interestingly my blog is called busy doing nothing... i believe that the best things happen and understood when we are doing nothing... and when you are busy with that... its like train journeys... its craZy... you spend the whole time in the middle of nowhere, with no one, not connected, in between... just yourself, and landscape passing by... people coming in, going out... that s a space i feel very comfortable in... would love to lead life like that... in situations where the destinations become really just the side products of the "journey"... kanishka.co.in & kanishka films are an attempt to that... to be on a journey... where all are welcome... i am open to all ideas, films, or otherwise... if there is something that anyone wants to do that comes from within and the reasons to do are logically/rationally difficult to do, and I can help, I am on...
for now, its films... would i always want to make films??? i doNT know... it seems like that but i doNT think it works like that, does it... films sort of saved me... they sort of rejuvenated me, and helped me re-discover myself... in a new light... from a loser stuck in the "educational system rut" to be able to proving not only that system but many around myself (including myself) wrong, it has been a bloody good journey... and NO i doNT want to sound like i have reached a destination.... ha!!! no way... the journey has just begun... one is finally daring to go on journeys and accept that destinations bore oneself out!!!
by the way kanishka is a popular hindi name... it was the name of a king... the word somewhere in its roots can be traced back to mean "gold"... it is also the name of a person i knew... the person had the guts to take flights... and wanted to fly away... i will never be able to take the flights the person was able to... this is my limited attempt to fly as much as i can and see what happens... what happens when you let open the seat belt... when you let go... so lets see what happens....

Because weebly stopped it's free service, I have had to migrate my website from there, and I found it easier to link up a new domain name and hence you are here. I continue to have kanishka.co.in, and this is just easier for redirecting the website. This website is still under construction and there might be some pages with missing links and so on. Please eXcuse this transition period.
