If there is one thing that traverses the bounds of geography and culture, it is art. Art is one form of expression that goes beyond the physical limitations created by humans, to appeal to our innate selves, alike. Which is why it is of utmost importance to acknowledge diversity in art.
This also holds true in the context of films and TV shows, but more so for films as the entire theatre-going experience really brings together people from all parts of the country. That being said, one production house that is actively working on inculcating more region-oriented content into mainstream media is Purple Pebble Pictures, founded by global icon Priyanka Chopra Jonas, in addition with her mother Madhu Chopra.
While the Indian focus is shifting towards South Indian films, the distribution hasn’t quite been equal for all parts of the country. Take for example, ‘Paani’, a National Award winning 2019 Marathi film. Not only is it lesser known by the masses, it is finally en route to gaining some recognition with its upcoming theatrical release on October 18, through PPP.
For an icon of the likes of Chopra Jonas, who has virtually expanded her influence across the world, this is not only a means to give uncelebrated talent a much needed platform, but in fact, make them gain recognition.
