Description

Anushka Lamba, a strong minded British-Indian woman wants to shape her destiny as director of her own life. Except, she constantly battles with her inner-self – and her loving but traditional Hindu parents, who believe she is too ‘westernised’ and not ‘Indian’ enough. When Anu arrives at university, half way across the country, to study a degree that’s far from her parent’s choice – and their wavering eye – she’s exposed to freedom and independence in abundance. She embarks on a secret relationship with fellow student Chris, whom she desperately wants to introduce and welcome into her family life. Her dilemmas and decisions take her on a roller-coaster ride – a tangled web of culture, identity, betrayal, confusion and heartache – in ways she could never have imagined. Is Anu strong enough to face the obstacles that stand in her way or will she give up midway and live a lesser life, leaving things to the mercy of destiny? Colour of my Heart takes us on a warm-hearted and emotional journey from Anu’s present deep into her past, as she strives to assert her own happiness and discover her own identity – without losing touch with her proud Indian roots and her parent’s aspirations.
