“The whole
story revolves around the shirt. The child is proud of his pocket. It sets him
apart from others his age, whose pockets are not only smaller but also ordinary
and similar to each other. The little boy does not understand the politics of
symbolism that adults engage in, and his pocket soon becomes a point of
contention amongst elders in the village. This story of a loss of innocence and
coming-of-age of a young boy, is ironically, symbolic of the times we live in,”
said More.
The filmmaker
added that he was planning to work on a different film and had called Kailash
Waghmare for casting. “He told me that in his village there had been an
incident of a child who had attempted to stand out from the crowd by wearing a
shirt with an unusually large pocket. I realised that this was the story I
wanted to tell and Waghmare wrote it,” said the director. Waghmare plays the
father of the child in the film.

ANDOLAN, a
movement initiated to praise women and their ultimate strong persona, their
paramount insight, and their superlative forbearance. Andolan steps forward to clamor
against pseudo feminism, causing much defilement to women rather than hale. “Combating
and competing has become so crucial to genders that they have lost their values
and prominence. The woman is becoming more like a man, abandoning her vibrance.
Feminine with a mustache.”-said Tathi premchand.
Artist: Tathi Premchand
The aura
created by Premchand’s vision stimulates every sense of living. His works have the
capacity to raise questions as well as to make any person stunned by giving
untold answers. The works laid on sheets are much of what comes from his
subconscious rather than pre-planned methods. When asked how he configure and
manage to create such depth in the paintings? He answered, “I observe, sketch
twice a day, sense my expressions and then collaborate.”
Tathi Premchand’s
works hold variance according to the dissemination of his dialect. He invests
all that is necessary to display the deliberation. From forms to figures,
erotic to static, moods to moments the paintings are a combination of what we
come across every day. Inspired by his town city and people living there, the
drawings are more often black and white,” I’ve always been curious how we see
colors through our lens but dreams and visuals going in the mind are inevitably
black and white, on the contrary I want people to fill up colors according to
their moods and diurnalexperiences” he says. The paintings and sketches hold discernment of human life, struggles,
desires and dualities of wit that we behold inside.
Drawing on graph paper -2012
The series of 70 works being processed since 2013 drives our
attention towards the way how humans have progressed and are ravelled in their
own aspirations, sovereignty and aesthetics. How the animals dwelling inside
each of us is silently waiting for their prey. “we all are animals inside,
always craving for more. Whether it is food, sexual eagerness, or wants to
excel over others, we always expect for more.” The artist affirms.
In most of Tathi Premchand’s presentation women plays a vital
role. He anticipates women as a preserver, a collector while a male as a
ravager. Though both contributes equal to society, women many a times have to
undergo a bulldoze pressure of mimicking the image of male as well. He
repudiates the thought of women being frail but consider her powerful, a soul who
is the creator, creator of human, house, love, affection and rejoice.
From eternity man has forged a sphere where women are wielded
according to his comfort, and in retribution women is shaping herself like
male, vying him to be self-sustained which eventually compressing her by
carrying all the responsibilities on her supple shoulders. “I feel women is a
combination of energies, she is synergy, but in order to beat man, that too due
to his own vile practices, she is being misused.” The artist said.
Not being a hoax feminist, Tathi Premchand always believes in
equality of genders, but as in reality and norms set by masculine dominant
society women have to encounter challenges and pronouncements. If she becomes
competitive enough to face them, she’s being condemned. Her efforts and endeavours
are never appreciated, but always judged and doubted. “I admire and acknowledge
how courageously women compete the foul boundations set by men.” Added
Premchand.
The physiological and psychological characteristics of man
and woman created by extramundane powers holds their own purposes and motives.
Both contribute well towards living, competing each other or penetrating into other’s
sphere of traits may create indecent and foul results. Hence, respecting
other’s freedom and persona will bring a vital change in further future.
Man and woman together fabricate the world, which invokes the
sense of living. Women being much sensual, men are considered more attractive
and alluring according to Tathi Premchand, adding on examples like Lion,
Peacock, Cock etc. Accepting male’s delightful appeal women always get
fascinated, which provokes her to embellish and adorn the ways she looks. Male
of the contrary need no such extra enhancements for his appeal.
Lust is what every human craves for and in many of the
paintings that libido can be seen in form of animals and their hunger. Animals
do not care about moral sense when it comes to fulfil their starvation. Likewise,
humans are a cluster of their unrevealed desires. They are not much concerned
about matters and morals when it comes to attain their wishes.
Andolan, a gesture started to untangle the dubiety of
stubborn society with minimal drawings that are gratifying to view and provoke
us to think down from the top surface. The artist profess that his paintings
and works are not just to be glance and to be showcased but to disclose his real
nous, that may compel the living to revitalize.
As we get conscious about the paintings and understand them,
we figure out that every painting has its own value and sense of representation.
The artist is making us aware of dark side by depicting them in different temperaments.
Using ink as a medium, Premchand manifests that our lives are too like ink,
dark, fluid but when used correctly every stroke laid can covey a significant
knowledge.
“my paintings are better than sex.” A quotation remarked by
Tathi premchand, signifies that his paintings are pleasure to experience,
provides great impact on thinking and you will always be keen to encounter
more. Nature, forms, colours and characters modifies him with every stroke
laid. Observing the psyche and understanding how every soul’s desires are
different yet have same aspirations.
