A still from the film Over the years, several films have been shot in Kashmir but not many have been based on it. For obvious political reasons. By this cowardly yardstick, Harud (Autumn) has to be a welcome exception. Not only is it entirely filmed in the so-called paradise but also centred on those who indeed live there and speak accented Urdu. Appropriately, their struggle for dignity — if not freedom — can be seen documented throughout the movie. However, the initial commotion silently gives way to a relatively calculated pace of events that unfolds.
