PATANG premiered to sold audiences and critical acclaim at the Berlin Film Festival, screening at over twenty five film festivals including the Chicago International Film Festival and the Tribeca Film Festival.

Roger Ebert handpicked PATANG as one of twelve films for his annual EbertFest. "The storytelling is effortlessly made part of the hypnotically beautiful visuals, and woven into a kaleidoscope of colors, faces, music and a little romance. Bhargava is masterful in the way he allows his story to emerge from his mosaic, instead of spelling it out by the numbers. Evokes the old and new Indias side by side as well as I've seen done." - Roger Ebert, Chicago Sun Times

When a Delhi businessman returns to his childhood home in Ahmedabad for India's largest kite festival, an entire family has to confront its own fractured past and fragile dreams. With naturalistic performances from actors and non-actors alike, bold, lyrical editing and vibrant cinematography, PATANG delights the senses and nourishes the spirit.

ý"This film has been made by sheer love and will. It is a film about the pride of a community, made by the community. PATANG has the power to inspire, change and remind us of magic of happiness. Help make the film a success by sharing information about it with friends and family. This summer, Hold on to Your Happiness!" - Chicago's own Prashant Bhargava, Writer/Director of PATANG
