Sab Lila Hai

About 20 kms from Lucknow in Uttar Pradesh are two villages - Rudahi where mainly Hindus live and Bargadi, where predominantly Muslims live. Thousands have been killed in the name of Ram and Allah in India, but for the past 38 years, against all odds, the Hindus and Muslims of the these villages have together staged the annual Ram Lila, an epic depicting the life of the Hindu god, Ram, in which all the main roles like Ram, Laxman and Ravana are played by Muslims. Till December 2009, the Sarpanch (village head) of Rudahi was in charge of the Ram Lila Committee and depending on his political allegiance, members of that party ruled supreme. After that, however, the political tide changed. Rudahi and 13 neighbouring villages were clubbed together to form Bakhshi Ka Talab Town Area. A new administration, a new minister, a new committee... and so starts the wrangling over who will organise the Ram Lila. As the two political rivals fight it out to wrench control over the electorate, many questions arise. What direction will the Ramlila take? Will the two committees be able to put aside their differences and preserve the tradition of the area? And biggest of all, what will happen to the local Muslim actors?

Sunny Side Up

This is the story of a vibrant community of people who ignoring their differences continue to live amongst each other and have worked out mechanisms to deflate tension. The story of diversity in its most elementary manifestation.
