Swades Songs

Swades is a movie produced and directed by Ashutosh Gowarikar, with Shahrukh Khan and the debutante actress Gayatri Joshi in the main lead. It received a cult following from Indian and South Asian diaspora around the world when it was released. It has an NRI, Mohan Bhargava, in the main lead as a project manager at NASA, who comes to India looking for his nanny Kaveri Amma with whom he is emotionally attached. This trip to India brings him face to face with the harsh realities of rural India – poverty, illiteracy, caste discrimination, child marriage, and conservativeness. The trip transforms him completely from a “mineral water only” NRI to a responsible and sensitive citizen of the country employing his education and the skills for the amelioration of life in his own motherland.
