On a night that celebrated not only cinema but also the vibrant energy of creative minds, the Versova Homage Screening VHS022 delivered an experience that was as engaging as it was thought-provoking. The event, centered on the film Mulk (2018), saw film director Anubhav Sinha in his element—bringing together cinematic vision and candid conversation. The screening was further enriched by a lively Q&A session, masterfully hosted by Sudhir Mishra, adding an extra layer of insight and banter to the evening.
Creative Spirits Unite
The atmosphere at the venue was charged with enthusiasm as creative faces mingled in spaces that celebrated art in its many forms. Attendees were treated to behind-the-scenes anecdotes and spirited dialogue that underscored how cinema is not just a medium of entertainment but also a mirror to society. Director Anubhav Sinha, renowned for his fearless approach to mainstream Bollywood and his ability to infuse films with critical social commentary, set the tone for the night. His work on Mulk—a film that dives deep into themes of justice and belonging—was discussed in a manner that highlighted its lasting impact on Indian cinema.
Drawing from his storied career, Sinha reminded the audience that when discussions on cinema take place, it’s never simply about the film itself. The screening was a reunion of sorts, echoing past exchanges from previous Versova Homage Screening events, where conversations have effortlessly shifted from film analysis to broader reflections on the times we live in. One of the memorable Instagram posts from an earlier event noted, “When Sinha and Mishra talk about cinema, it’s never just about the films, it’s about the times we live in, the questions we ask, and the stories we dare to tell.” This sentiment resonated strongly through the evening as both speakers delved into the making and meaning of Mulk.
Film, Banter, And Bold Ideas
The Q&A session, a highlight of the night, was marked by genuine curiosity and light-hearted yet incisive banter. Sudhir Mishra, taking on the role of moderator, steered the conversation with an easy charm that allowed both the director and the audience to explore the film’s deeper narratives. The discussion touched upon a range of topics—from the technical nuances of film-making to the personal-political journeys that shape an artist’s vision. In a relaxed yet thoughtful exchange, Sinha and Mishra unpacked how Mulk challenged conventional storytelling methods while remaining grounded in the real world. Their interaction was punctuated with witty repartees, making it a memorable occasion for cinephiles and casual viewers alike.
From Versova To The Silver Screen
The screening not only celebrated a film but also highlighted the cultural significance of fostering spaces where art meets conversation. Versova, long known for its creative pulse, provided the perfect backdrop for an event that blurred the lines between film appreciation and live discourse. With a series of stunning images shared on Instagram, the event’s aesthetic was immortalized through visual storytelling. One such image captured the director deep in thought, while another showed candid moments of laughter and shared insights among the guests.

Fans and attendees were reminded of the legacy behind Mulk and the pivotal role it plays in the evolution of political cinema. Anubhav Sinha’s journey as a filmmaker, detailed in various profiles and his celebrated filmography, came alive through his candid reflections during the event. His willingness to discuss both the creative and the critical aspects of filmmaking provided a genuine look at the man behind the camera. As noted in one of his earlier posts, Sinha has always been a quiet revolutionary in mainstream Bollywood, proving that impactful cinema does not need to be bombastic to be profound.
