Description

Can films and art change the world? How do we find purpose through our art? Why do some films stick with us, and transform us?


Rakeysh Omprakash Mehra is back on The Philosophy of Now! The National Award-winning renowned filmmaker sits down with us to discuss his creative process and life philosophy.


We dissect some of his films by looking at them at a philosophical level. How did Aamir Khan's Rang De Basanti speak to the youth of today? What is the importance of looking within like he does often in his films like Bhaag Milkha Bhaag?


Mehra also dives into the importance of art transforming the individual spiritually. He doesn't shy away from telling us that being in the unknown in life is beautiful in itself. The master filmmaker tells us we need to embrace the simplicity in life and love the light and darkness.


This is a vulnerable conversation with a masterful creative. He also talks about his next pan-Indian Bollywood movie diving into the Mahabharata! Check out the full episode NOW!
