In this episode of Desi Talkies, our hosts Ananya & Aneesa talk about Sarmad Khoosat's Zindagi Tamasha (2019), released publicly on YouTube on August 4, 2023. Despite being approved by the censorship board, the film was unlawfully denied a theatrical release in Pakistan in 2019. Four years later, Sarmad Khoosat released this film for the public and therefore, fueled conversation about how art in Pakistan deserves an audience. With the censorship issues revolving around Zindagi Tamasha, our hosts talk about the flaws and hypocrisy within censorship laws in Pakistan. Ananya & Aneesa carry out their in-depth film discussion with a scene-by-scene analysis, casting breakdown, narrative analysis, and cinematographic opinion.
