<p><span style="background-color: transparent;">In this episode of </span><em style="background-color: transparent;">Parrot House (तोता घर)</em><span style="background-color: transparent;">, the timeless Punjabi folktale of Sohni and Mahiwal — a tale of forbidden love, longing, and fate is revived to life. Sohni, a gifted potter’s daughter, falls for Izzat Baig, a trader from Bukhara. Bound in an unwanted marriage, she secretly crosses the Chenab each night to meet him, defying her family and village. But betrayal shatters their escape, and the river that once carried their love claims their lives. Told through poetic narration, haunting music, and a chorus, this episode captures how their love transcended death to live on in song and memory.</span></p><p><br></p><p><strong style="background-color: transparent;">Director: </strong><span style="background-color: transparent;">Nikhita Singh</span></p><p><strong style="background-color: transparent;">Writer: </strong><span style="background-color: transparent;">, Archie Joshi</span></p><p><strong style="background-color: transparent;">Cast: </strong><span style="background-color: transparent;">Divya Sundrani, Kartik Gopalkrishnan, Jasmin Thakar, Madhumoy Satpathy, Nikhita Singh, Shivna Mishra, Shreya Sharma, Swara Vaishnav </span></p><p><strong style="background-color: transparent;">Sound Designer & Editor: </strong><span style="background-color: transparent;">hashparker</span><strong style="background-color: transparent;"> </strong></p><p><strong style="background-color: transparent;">Music Composer: </strong><span style="background-color: transparent;">Hasan Baldiwala</span></p><p><strong style="background-color: transparent;">Music Producer: </strong><span style="background-color: transparent;">Aman Arakh</span></p><p><strong style="background-color: transparent;">Executive Producer: </strong><span style="background-color: transparent;">Divyansh Thada</span></p><p><strong style="background-color: transparent;">Recording Studio: </strong><span style="background-color: transparent;">Space Cat Studio </span></p><p><strong style="background-color: transparent;">Poster & Social Media Design:  </strong><span style="background-color: transparent;">Sanika Kannawar</span></p><p><strong style="background-color: transparent;">Social Media Planning: </strong><span style="background-color: transparent;">Jasmin Thakar & Ranjana Sarkar</span></p><p><strong style="background-color: transparent;">CCF Support Team: </strong><span style="background-color: transparent;">, Aashika Prabhakar, Ashmeen Bains, Archie Joshi, Ranjana Sarkar</span></p><p><strong style="background-color: transparent;">Indian Sign Language (ISL): Video Production:  </strong><span style="background-color: transparent;">Vivid Sutra</span></p><p><strong style="background-color: transparent;">ISL Casting & Direction: </strong><span style="background-color: transparent;">Payal Bose</span><strong style="background-color: transparent;"> </strong></p><p><strong style="background-color: transparent;">ISL Expert (Deaf):  </strong><span style="background-color: transparent;">Sameer Yadav</span></p><p><strong style="background-color: transparent;">ISL Interpreter: </strong><span style="background-color: transparent;">Stuti Kumari</span></p><p><strong style="background-color: transparent;">ISL Cinematography & Editing:  </strong><span style="background-color: transparent;">Mayank Kumar</span></p><p><strong style="background-color: transparent;">Commissioning Producer: </strong><span style="background-color: transparent;">Dheeraj Dubey</span></p><p><br></p><p><span style="background-color: transparent;">A </span><a href="https://www.instagram.com/official_ccfindia/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank" style="background-color: transparent; color: rgb(17, 85, 204);"><strong>CCF</strong></a><strong style="background-color: transparent;"> x </strong><a href="https://www.instagram.com/parwanatheatre?igsh=MTd1YjU0bWhqMWl3Zg==" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank" style="background-color: transparent; color: rgb(17, 85, 204);"><strong>Parwana</strong></a><strong style="background-color: transparent;"> Production</strong></p><p><br></p><p><strong style="background-color: transparent;">Have a story to share?
