Along with a bunch of renowned  Gujarati artists, Parthiv Gohil and Pratik Gandhi come together for the Reflections of Kutchh, celebrating the vibrant Kutchhi Tradition.

Parthiv Gohil, our very own Gujarati singer has come up Gujarati Jalso, presenting REFLECTIONS OF KUTCHH, a beautiful film that reflects the vibrant colorful refection of the prismatic white Kutchh,

Parthiv alongside his team has created a musical film shot in the white dessert of Kutchh where our gujarati artists have lent their beautiful voices and performed so graciously, artists like  alap Desai, Bhoomi Trivedi,Chirag Vohra,Geeta Rabari,Hanif Aslam,Ishani Dave,Jahnvi Shrimakar, Jignesh Barot, Kala Varso musicians, Manasi Parekh Gohil, Nandy Sisters,Osman Mir, Parthiv Gohhil, Sanjay Goradia,and the Siddi group. Pratik Gandhi has beautifully linked and corelated all the musical pieces through his words. Later on Gujarat Tourism and Reliance foundation joined us for this noble cause.

When asked about the idea, Parthiv said, “ The pandemic was a reason to a heavy disengagement of works happening for the artist community, hence I had decided to bring up something that would help to  create a fundraiser with a cause. I had this idea in mind of creating a musical event or journey with our artists and slowly things began working and we had a bunch of renowned artists ready to join us in our small beginning and in a small stretch of time we became an enormous team of 200 members representing Reflections of Kutchh our musical journey crafted into a film directed by  Mahashweta Burma  who just blew it off with the amazing visuals and color palette full of spirits and life.

Talking about the location he adds,”Kutchh is a place that has always fascinated me, the white rann, the tent city the vibes and the beauty of Kutchh itself celebrates life so and to our benefit very recently there were film awards that took place there so our artists were present at the very moment and up for our film, we had a schedule of 20 days which we wrapped up in just 3 days and this was noteworthy in itself, each member in the team worked enthusiastically and without any complaints. We had shot various scenes in the white rann in the day light and scorching heat but our artists performed in the heat took different takes and their hardwork has lighted our film with sparkles and joy.”

Interestingly the musical film has already been released and screened overseas and a foundation in the States named Share & Care has raised an 8 lakh dollar fund for the pandemic relief and recovery through the movie screening.

Talking about the audience reactions Parthiv adds,” We had an intention before making this film and it was all about raising funds for our community and we have successfully raised funds and the cherry on the cake was people coming out of the theatre smiling, there was a different smile on the audiences face and everyone took something from our film, in form of songs, visuals, colors, vibes.  Those reactions made our hardwork worth it and we wish more people to watch the film and celebrate our tradition.”
