A pair of worn out feet that tread between the lanes and by lanes of
Ahmedabad. Morning after morning. Miles after miles. Below the layers
of caked paint, fading dyes, smudged kohl and oil that at times
glitters in the sun is a performer. An artist who prides his profession
and strives day after day to keep it living. A bahrupia [bahu = many,
roop = appearance] the mischievous artist, the master of disguise steps
out of his dwelling as a different self everyday. The street is a stage
for him and entertainment a form of business. People watch, people
laugh, people clap, the bahrupia with faith in his performance and hope
in his heart expects to be rewarded. Sometimes he is, sometimes he
isn’t. The make up fails to conceal both his joy and his
disappointment. JAB BHAGWAN BHIK MANGTA HAI documents the life of one
such bahurupia- Ganeshbhai who lives in a world that fails to
acknowledge his art as a means of living and overlooks his struggle to
protect the heritage of his profession. A world that eventually gets
him beg. Gets god to beg….

Film Critique on The Colour Yellow, by Josh Penfold
Now usually I don't like experimental films, but I actually really
liked this. The cinematography was very good and set it apart from the
others, for me, this made the production look a lot slicker and more
professional.
