The film “Megh Malhaar– Racing with the Monsoons” will
take audiences through a magnificent and rejuvenating journey across two
distinct rain bearing belts of India, depicting the story of one of the world’s
greatest natural phenomenons– the Southwest Monsoons.
Seen through the narrator’s eyes, the journey begins from
the lowermost tip of India at Cape Comorin, moving up to Trivandrum, Allepey
and Cochin in Kerala, to Periyaar, Mysore and Mangalore in Karnataka, parts of
Goa, to Mumbai via Ratnagiri, then on to Daman and, Surat in Gujarat, reaching
Jaipur in Rajasthan and finally, Delhi covering the Arabian Sea section.
Next, the narrator travels to Varanasi in Uttar Pradesh
to Calcutta in West Bengal, Guwahati in Assam and Khasi Hills, Shillong and
Cherrapunji in Meghalaya covering the Bay of Bengal branch.
“The meeting of the earth and the clouds is a kind of
love-making."
- Alexander Frater, Chasing the Monsoon
