His Voice

Agastya Raj has a stroke that leaves him paralysed from the neck down and unable to speak. Confined to his bed, surrounded by a circle of love and care sewn together by his wife Khushi, he shares with us the tumultuous thoughts that swirl in his mind. In this fictionalized narrative, Rima Pande immerses herself in her father’s consciousness to become his voice, bringing to you the story of her parents, her father’s illness, and her strong and giving mother.

His Voice is a sensitive portrayal of deep family roots and often unspoken bonds across four generations. With little twists aplenty that will make you nod and smile.

Rima Pande lives in the Boston area, enjoys parenting three amazing kids, unstructured and experimental cooking, and maximum travel. Her favourite leisure activity is sitting outside in an Adirondack chair with a book when it is sunny and 22 degree celsius.
