Taha Shah Badussha on his next movie Paro: “If my film can save even one woman’s life, it’s the biggest blessing”

Taha shared his thoughts on the impact of Paro and his reason for taking on such a serious subject. “After Heeramandi, I did a film called Paro, which is based on bridal slavery. It’s a very hard-hitting social subject and when we see the audience’s reaction at the screening, once they step out of the movie, we see that their lives have changed. Someone asked me what was the best compliment that I got after Paro was released, I said, ‘Whenever a film premiere happens, as soon as it ends, everybody claps. In my screening, everybody was dead silent because it hit so hard that there had to be silence at the moment. They didn’t know whether they should clap for this movie or not.’ I think when you can incept such an emotion into the audience, it’s filmmaking at its best.”

Taha Shah Badussha concluded by saying, “That’s why I would like to do films that convey the right messages and right morals. Hopefully, if these social messages reach the right people, this film can save lives. And if my film can save even one woman's life through this campaign that we are doing, then I think it's the biggest blessing for anybody.”

With Paro, Taha Shah Badussha takes on a role that highlights a rarely addressed issue, aiming to shed light on stories often overlooked.
