INDIA---The recent digital film Western Sanskritana is received well by various sections of the society in Imphal city and the state. The lyrics and tunes of some hymns of Manipuri Vaishnavism are recreated with western musical instruments and dance forms. The digital film Western Sanskritana targets these people who were generally robbed of fun and leisure in their real lives. But, is it right to use the core elements of Manipuri Vaishnavism in creating funny situations or humor? Are they above religious codes? The silence of the Manipuri Vaishnavite is the tragedy of modern Manipur. [link]
