What does Black and White mean? Two Colors? Two Extremes? Two polarities? Obviously about contrasts, Black and White epitomizes the Black and White psyche- a psyche that refuses to see shades beyond the two. A mind that is literally ‘color-blind’ Imagine when the colors of rainbow confront a man whose mind has always been conditioned to see only Black and White. It is nothing short of an earth shaking experience. Same can be said of my experience while making such a realistic film which confronted my psyche with new never- before nuances- be it the story, the characters, the conflict, the drama or the final revolution. It has left me emotionally elevated- a different kind of elation from mainstream cinema.
Black and White is an emotional Drama that entertains for sure but leaves the audience with a lofty message for all humanity- in search of harmony amidst diversity. In that sense, ‘Black and White’ is an idea whose time has come. Just what the world needs, perhaps.
And when a thought-provoking theme such as this one comes straight from the heart, it holds a special place in my mind-scape as it has filled my world with so many colours!
