How do you dream when you can’t see while being awake ? Do you get that hand loaned back in that REM stage of your sleep ? Do you turn Goliath to your own David in those blessed nightmares ?
Dharamveer, the pugilist - is a father to six, and lives in a little shanti made of mud and straws. Life is far from an easy win. He has a second job of feeding buffaloes at a dairy farm. Feeding his family on a daily basis feels like a mission to him sometimes. As if to heal it all and have an easy win, he fights his life's adversities in the form of a benign scarecrow that cannot fight back. And he knocks him out, everytime.
Monu, the chemistry lab assistant dreams of hands growing like flowers from his head, and his arms stretching till eternity. Simply a case of dreaming of wads of cash for someone with no money? Law of attraction in a slightly convoluted shape at play here ?
OmPal, the blind caretaker, lost his sight when he was 7. He dreams in audio now. Chatter and stories collected through the day, mixed with fantasy, old film songs, temple chants, the voice of his parents, and very rarely, flashes of lights - is all he experiences in his sleep. "Some people tell me that one of my eyes looks like how the earth looks from the moon. I have no idea how that looks". How does one see a dream when one can't see at all. Is it strangling in a way, or is it as normal as for someone with a normal sight ?
