Morning Raga

• Watchlist

A violinist and a vocal singer, their children; a businessman, his wife and their daughter accidentally meet on a bridge spanning the banks of the Godavari river in Andhra Pradesh, India. Fast forward twenty years, the children grow up and the bridge becomes a symbolic one, reuniting the lives and deaths of the six that met on that fateful day. Music, love, compassion are a common thread that weaves life that culminates in a fusion concert where tradition interlaces with modern, in costume, music, instruments but timeless values. The multi layered plot is simple. Girl's mother is supportive of the boy's aspiration to get a band together. The boy's dad, a wealthy landowner wants his son to manage his vast estate, rather than scrounge for gigs in the city. The boy chooses to chase his dream. The aspirations of the vocalist and violinist are realised through the children.
