Saanjh marks the debut of producer and director, Ajay K Saklanni, who, through this movie attempts to bring to the fore the lesser known Himachali language and tries to revive the almost forgotten Tankri Script.
The serenity of village life amidst the Himalayas reaches the peak of sublimity as the visual tour is accompanied by some of the most melodious songs rendered by Mohit Chauhan and Pavithra Chari which strike the heart strings of even those who are unfamiliar with the Pahari dialect.
As time passes, however, she finds solace in his company and with him hatches a plan to raise just enough money to escape from the village and return to her home in the city.
Meanwhile, Sanju gradually begins to understand her grandmother's pain of living a secluded life and they bond over being ostracised by the man who failed to be a good son and father at the same time.
When Sanju's grandmother falls sick, the film captures that unforgettable saanjh (dusk) when twilight dissolves into the darkness of loss and despair.
