Inspired by the acclaimed novel ‘Yatra’, written by the esteemed Dilip Borah, known for his work as a novelist, short story writer, essayist, and columnist, the film ‘Prastawana – The Preamble’, based on true events and produced by Borah himself along with Dr Rabin Saikia, garnered significant attention from viewers with the release of its three posters, a trailer, and three songs. The film will undoubtedly serve as a testament to Dilip Bora’s creative influence, with his original storytelling and insightful narratives that continue to inspire and engage audiences through the years. Co-directing alongside Dilip Borah is Manik Roy, a prominent figure in Assam’s amateur theatre community and the founder of Guwahati Shishu Natya Vidyalay in 1998, who contributes his expertise from directing acclaimed state and national-level theatre productions to the film.
‘Prastawana – The Preamble’ explores the current social and political landscape of the nation and analyses its impact on students who are entangled in the intricacies of the political system. The film presents a candid and unvarnished depiction of the ways in which political interference can compromise the fundamental objectives of education, illuminating the underlying injustices and exploitative dynamics that emerge as a result of such interference, stated a press release.
