One Story. Two Mediums.

“A rare story that found its fullest expression on both the page and the screen.” (The Times of India)‍ ‍

A Song for Eresha was developed concurrently as a novel and a feature film. Released together, they are parallel works set in the same fictional world.

Set within the arts institution of Aalayam and the town of Azhagankarai, the story follows Eresha, a revered cultural figure whose relationship with one of her students begins to unravel the certainties on which an entire institution has been built.

The novel and the film tell the same story through different forms. The novel unfolds through language, character, and emotional perspective, while the film relies on image, performance, atmosphere, and silence. Together, they offer complementary approaches to the same narrative.
