Kaatru Veliyidai by Mani Ratnam

Kaatru Veliyidai (transl. Amidst the air) is a 2017 Indian Tamil-language romantic war film, produced, written and directed by Mani Ratnam. Set against the backdrop of the Kargil War of 1999, the film narrates the story of an Indian Air Force pilot who recalls his romance with a doctor in the lead up to the war, while being kept as a prisoner of war at a jail in Rawalpindi, Pakistan. Kaatru Veliyidai marked Aditi’s comeback and Shraddha’s debut in Tamil cinema.

About Mani Ratnam: A Retrospective:

A career that has unfolded over 4 decades, across 5 languages, and resulted in 28 films, Mani Ratnam’s filmography has been a shape-shifting force for Indian Cinema.

Framed through the eyes of his cinematographers–Ravi K Chandran, Ravi Varman, Rajeev Menon, and Santosh Sivan–the retrospective is curated with filmmaker Bejoy Nambiar, as an ode from a student to his mentor.
