Chaitra (2002 film)

The story of a proud woman, her poetic vindication of unfair social insult, and her inevitable sad destiny.

A very culture-specific film dipped in a local festival of rural women.

Cinematographer Mahesh Muthuswami contributed an amount towards the production and so did the sound designer Subir Das.

[1] At the Mumbai International Film Festival 2002 it won National Critics’ Award and Best Short - Silver.

The film was also included in a DVD titled "Master Strokes", a compilation of works of twenty renowned FTII students.
