Krishan Hooda’s directorial
Rebellious Flower won the Special Mention Jury Award at Salento International
Film Festival held in Tricase, Italy 2015. The film was a closing night film
and the screening was graced by Indian Ambassador to Italy Mr. Basant Gupta.
Krishan Hooda officially represented India in Italy.
As reported by Italian news media
“Rebellious Flower is a contribution to the knowledge of the personal biography
of a man (Osho) who represented a philosophical reference far beyond the
borders of his country, and that brings us back to the ancient roots of certain
philosophy / spirituality of the ancient ‘West mixed Orient”.
Rebellious Flower is a bouquet of
handpicked flowers from the garden of an unending celebration. Inspired on the
life of Osho, this is a first film ever made on the spiritual guru - Rajneesh
Osho.
The film narrates the life of
Raja in his adolescence and youth and moreover a rebellion in him, who is keen
to unearth the answers beneath the surface of facts, which are unacceptable to
others. It beautifully narrates the transition Raja goes through in the phase
of enlightenment and sanctity.
His childhood mentor his maternal
grandmother (nani) who nurtures his childhood and a strong pillar in his
learning phase is very well depicted in the film. Their bond, love and unsaid
understanding are soothing therapies of emotional connect.
Rebellious Flower is an anecdote
which takes on the path of beliefs, Raja resolves to walk on. In retrospect he
surmises that existence is inevitably attained by purely accepting the
simplicity of subconscious with the help of his mentors
He embarks on a journey to
understand the beauty that lies behind the unexpressed phrases of human
perception and this is how he transforms to be a rebellious flower to share the
essence and scent of its being, unconditionally.

spoke volumes. We could hear that with the accolade we received” said director
Krishan Hooda.
