You may have seen this documentary film before. If you have, you will, I’m sure, want to see it again. It is not about Ram or Kabir. It is about you and me.
Had Anhad is a documentary film, part of the Kabir Project, released in 2008.
A film by Shabnam Virmani
Language: Hindi & Urdu with English Subtitles
Duration: 103 minKabir was a 15th century mystic poet of north India who defied the boundaries between Hindu and Muslim. He had a Muslim name and upbringing, but his poetry repeatedly invokes the widely revered Hindu name for God – Ram. Who is Kabir’s Ram? This film journeys through song and poem into the politics of religion, and finds a myriad answers on both sides of the hostile border between India and Pakistan.

Slight, pedantic disagreement: it IS about Ram and Kabir, and *as such*, it is about you and me, because:
a) Ali, Muhammad, ulti boli,
Kia samjheiN yeh Bheel aur Kohli,
Ram merey sungg bussta;
MeiN Sufi hooN sarmata;
Mera kon pechanrey rasta.
b) Kabir’s universality, which makes him, at once, applicable to the Pundit he denigrates, and the Dalit he empowers; the Hindu and the Muslim; the poor and the not-so-poor; and so on.
Ram/god/divinity is within everyone, as much as Kabir is everyperson. Together, they make a rapturous combination.
