A short, poignant children’s film titled CROSSINGS, helmed by National Award-winning filmmaker Vivek Mohan, is set to be released on December 11.

Speaking about the film, Mohan said its narrative weaves together two real-life stories involving children from Shimla — Dhananjay Singh Thakur and his classmate Bhavik Rangot — along with 22-year-old Praneeta Kamal and Mohan himself. “The central idea of the story is that we have not inherited this planet from our forefathers, but borrowed it from children,” he said.

Mohan added that most of the film was shot in the serene surroundings of Jakhu Hills.

The Tribune, now published from Chandigarh, started publication on February 2, 1881, in Lahore (now in Pakistan). It was started by Sardar Dyal Singh Majithia, a public-spirited philanthropist, and is run by a trust comprising five eminent persons as trustees.

The Tribune, the largest selling English daily in North India, publishes news and views without any bias or prejudice of any kind. Restraint and moderation, rather than agitational language and partisanship, are the hallmarks of the newspaper. It is an independent newspaper in the real sense of the term.

The Tribune has two sister publications, Punjabi Tribune (in Punjabi) and Dainik Tribune (in Hindi).
