Antardhwani, a documentary on Pandit Shiv Kumar Sharma, based on her biography, fetched the Rajat Kamal in 2009. Meeting Manjit: English/39 minutes/Colour Meeting Manjit is a documentary on the famous painter Manjit Bawa. It is a film of three parallel journeys. The filmmaker makes his own journey through the world of Manjit. Ina Puri, Manjit's friend, scans the change in Manjit's style of painting. Manjit sometimes goes through his present days and sometimes goes deep down and immersed in the past, talks as if to his own self. Along with the exquisite visuals, this documentary is a rare presentation of an artist's life, subconscious and its expression on the canvas. It has been treated in a unique way by director Buddhadeb Dasgupta, who has himself done the commentary. He talks about his experiences in Dalhousie, where Manjit has a studio and spends a lot of time in painting. There are two other voiceovers in the film -- one of Ina Puri and the other of Manjit himself. Ina talks about Manjit's life, paintings and the beautiful bonding that they share.
