Freedom is a relative term in a state that continues to burn, as we understand from actor Aamir Bashir's directorial debut Harud, that is set in Kashmir

Television actor Aamir Bashir made a shift to films in 2003. Two things happened that year - Jammu and Kashmir got hooked onto satellite phones and Bashir found his first film Harud (autumn). As a director that is. The Srinagar-born Bashir left J&K when he was 18 to study History at Delhi's Stephen College. "In most of my dreams the setting still is Kashmir. I used to have a recurring nightmare of being in a gunfight for a few years after I moved to Delhi. Even though I have tried to retain the beautiful memories of treks and climbs in the summer and skiing in the winter and swimming in the lakes. The last few months of 1989 are etched in my mind.
