Shareek

The word Shareek may refer to sharing in dictionary but in Punjab it had always been opposite to it. As time flies, one doesnt even notice that how and when the brothers become the enemies of each other. Brothers are brothers and their children become cousins. But for the feudal society of Punjab, the word cousins stands for shareeks and shareeks stand for enemies. Just for the ownership of a piece of a land the cousins would wage a ruthless war between themselves. For centuries, this phenomenon has taken its toll and it has never stopped. The film Shareek, with all the emotion, romance, thrill and action, addresses this menace strongly, although in the undercurrent.
