- L K Mavane (2022 MCVP)
In June this year, the team Mirror ( Ningthoujam Victor Singh, Priyal Agarwalla, Abhinov Sonowal and I) under the supervision of Nathaniel Majaw experienced a little natgeowild in Liyai Khullen Village. Prior to the filming of Songs of Life, we had a series of fun with a fair amount of smoky situations included. We don't want to miss out on any detail, the hundred rupees charm and the hit on the road.
Traveling to our set was a real slippery journey. Flight was delayed, we had gotten late. The rain had caused a landslide on the road to the village which caused us to take the forest path. You can imagine how a car fared in the path where buffaloes walked everyday!
The weather was harsh but our plates were heavy. We geared up in jackets and boots in the middle of summer and went through the village, hiked up the hill and went through the fields and the forest. Seikho Ramai and Zhaiveikho Yonah became maps of the place and of people whenever and however we needed them. Pao Sapunii showed his seasoned professionalism throughout our shoot. The team can never forget the elders of the village who willingly told us stories and sang songs for us.
Thank you to our parents, friends and families. According to the words of our teammate Ningthoujam Victor Singh" We could have made a film anywhere, but we wouldn't have had this experience anywhere else." Thank you sir Nathaniel Majaw for allowing us to go beyond the border and pushing us to believe and perform the impossible!
