Short Film 'Disha' Raises Voice Against Drug Abuse

Presented by: Kali Das Pandey

The short film ‘Disha’, produced by Black Coffee and Smoke Films for the Indian Academy of Pediatrics (IAP)—the world’s second-largest pediatric association—is creating waves across the country.

What makes Disha even more special is the appearance of Bollywood’s first superstar Rajesh Khanna’s daughter, Twinkle Khanna, who expresses heartfelt gratitude toward pediatricians and the Indian Academy of Pediatrics.

Written and directed by renowned Bollywood composer, lyricist, and singer Rahul B. Seth, the film focuses on the issue of substance and drug abuse. Known for his musical campaign against female foeticide, Rahul B. Seth has also been honored at the UK Parliament’s House of Lords. With Disha, he takes his first step into direction.

Rahul, who has composed music for hit films like Yamla Pagla Deewana (starring Dharmendra, Sunny & Bobby Deol), has also contributed to global themes like world peace, global warming, and terrorism through his music.

The film is conceptualized by Dr. Vasant Khalatkar, National President of IAP. Executive producer is Sunil Tiwari, creative director Chetan Rao, DOP Mukesh Sharma, with music by Arpan Arekar and Rahul B. Seth.

Supported by the Government of India’s Nasha Mukt Bharat Abhiyan, Disha aims to spread awareness and encourage a drug-free society.

Lead Cast: Kiran Kumar, Vishnu Lathawa, Devendra Pandit, Shweta Kataria, Neetu Bhatt, and Twinkle Khanna.
