Filmmaker and lyricist <b>Varun Grover</b> sat for a detailed interview with <b>India Today</b> on March 5, 2024, discussing his latest short film <b>Kambakhat</b> that portrays the dignity of ageing artists. Grover explained that the narrative confines the protagonists within a single room to emphasize restraint, while the music cues evoke memories of past glories.

Kambakhat is slated for release on digital platforms in early May and will also feature in the Mumbai Short Film Festival, where Grover hopes it sparks dialogue on elder respect.
