Eyedea Productions has made this offer to Maan after watching two of his films Peecho and Geete, on Punjabi folk games.
They were directed for the Electronic Multi Media Research Centre (EMMRC) of the university, to be telecast on Doordarshan under the UGC’s Consortium for Educational Communication (CEC) programme.
“Recently, we came across two short films directed by you on the folk games of Punjab, Peecho and Geete. The way you have visually approached and treated these subjects in an exclusive manner convinces us that these films have global audience.
Also, these films are unique in a way that they not only depict the cultural heritage in a succinct manner but also show their relevance to the Punjabi women folk in a very subtle manner,” reads the letter written by President of Eyedea Productions, Harbaldeep Singh.
“Based on the scripts of noted Punjabi writer, Kirpal Kazak, these games were visualised and given directorial treatment from two angles, one, that these games led to the evolution of modern games and second, that these were very intimately related to the real lives of Punjabi folk girls till date,” said Maan.
