When we are in school, we religiously rote what the three colours of the Indian National Flag (Tiranga) stand for – Saffron for courage, White for peace, and Green for prosperity.
But as we grow up and form our own convoluted definitions of ‘nationalism’, do we start to pick and choose from these meanings to serve our own agenda? Budding filmmaker and poet Navaldeep Singh raises this question in a moving recitation of his poem, A Plea For Peace for UnErase Poetry.
Performed at the Tuning Fork in Mumbai, Singh’s powerful words breathe life into the forgotten Tiranga, and it will leave you with goosebumps.
