After a gap of more than 5 years,
comes a Sindhi movie

Pyar Kare Dis: Feel The Power of Love

It is my humble effort to encourage Sindhi Cinema, says producer M Harwani

If Bhojpuri movies can do it, so can Sindhi movies, says director Kamal D Nathani

Mumbai: Is it not ironical that despite having many big producers, financers, technicians and artists from the Sindhi community in Bollywood, release of a movie in this language is a rare occurrence, asks Kamal D Nathani, director of soon-to-be-released family entertainer "Pyar Kare Dis: Feel the Power of Love".

Mr Nathani, who has just finished shooting and is busy in post production of the movie told reporters here, in last 60 years of Independent India, there are 20-odd movies made in the language, though there is no dearth of resources as the community is economically sound.

When asked, is it commercially viable to make a Sindhi movie and recover the cost, M Harwani, Denmark-based producer of the movie told over phone, with the population of five crore, Sindhi community has presence all over the world, there is ample scope for a Sindhi movie to be a profitable venture, while Mr Nathani asserted if a Bhojpuri movie can recover its cost and run successfully in non-Bhojpuri speaking centers, why not a Sindhi movie?

"The success of PYAR KARE DIS would change this scenario", hoped Mr. Harwani, who had earlier made "Pyar Ka Tarana" with Dev Anand.

"It is a humble effort on my part to encourage Sindhi cinema in particular and the language in general", claimed Mr Harwani.

Mr Harwani opined that in fact, Sindhi movies made in black & white era with limited resources were well received because they had good stories to tell and were well-made but in the recent past, say in last 15-20 years, movies made in the language were very poor in content, he said and added also the look of the movie is very important as you have to compete with a Bollywood movie.

About 'Pyar Kare Dis: Feel the Power of Love', Mr. Nathani said it has a contemporary theme and portrays the realities which community is facing today.

According to Mr. Nathani, PYAR KARE DIS is a typical 'feel good' movie with all ingredients of a family entertainer.

It is journey of a Non Resident Indian girl to her country of origin, where she finds her love of life, he added.

The movie shot in flat 18 days is scheduled for August release, the producer and added that he would like to explore online release of the movie besides traditional avenues like theatres and DVDs/VCDs.
