AJJINCHYA GOSHTI (Grandmother’s Tales)2004

“Ajjinchya Goshti“ (grandmothers’ tales) is an exploration of the concept of time and space through the medium of film seen within the ambiance of an intimate space complementing the themes of the films. The protagonists of the video films are “the grand mothers”. from comfortable, middle class, Brahmin families. They share the intimate and personal anecdotes from their life--before and after marriage thus revealing subtle nuances of their life. The project thus becomes an enquiry into lives of women, their different spaces and an understanding of their individual struggle within their social structure. Films are oral history which helps to understand the social/cultural history and traditions of their times.
