‘Dozakh’ (2015) was a film about whose existence I came to know about very recently thanks to Sant Kabir’s couplets which was the only song in this film. The title of the film itself put me in a confusion as I heard this word for the first time. Online search revealed that ‘dozakh’ is a Persian word which means ‘hell’ and ‘jahannum’ in Arabic. The full title of the film is ‘Dozakh – In Search of Heaven’. The idea behind the title is that the director wanted to emphasise on a dogmatic belief that a person who strictly follows his own religious guidelines and hates other religions will go to heaven.
The film had Lalit Tiwari and the child actor, Garrick Chaudhari in the main roles, supported by Ruby Saini, Nazim Khan, Khushboo Seth, Pawan Tiwari, Irfaan Rizvi etc. The film was produced by Zaigham Imam and Pawan Tiwari and was directed by Zaigham Imam. This film can be put under the category of the parallel cinema. The film was shown in some international fiom festivals – both in India and abroad during 2013-14. It received Censor Certificate for theatrical release on August 30, 2014 but the film could get the thetrical release in India on March 20, 2015.

Hullo Atuldom
Last year in May, I had posted a Hindi song from a Malayalam film which starred Mohanlal, on the occasion of his 60th birthday. At that time I had mentally made note to write a post for the birthday of the other super actor of Malayalam.

In our high school curriculum, we had Hindi Padhya (Poetry) in which, among others, poems of Meerabai, Tulsidas, Kabirdas, Surdas, Raskhan were taught to us. While most of the poems were in the praise of Lord Ram and Krishna, poems of Sant Kabirdas were not addressed to any specific God. I had heard the word ‘nirgun’ from my teacher in regard to the poems of Sant Kabirdas, I did not know the meaning of ‘nirgun’ in wider sense until few years back. Some of Dohas (two liners) have still remained in my memory. One of those which often come to my mind is:
