Join the Centre for India and South Asia Research for a powerful screening of The Silent Epidemic, a documentary that sheds light on the devastating yet often-overlooked social impact of road crashes in India.
Through deeply personal narratives, the film follows the resilience of survivors and their families as they navigate life-altering challenges while advocating for a safer future. Directed by Akshat Gupta and produced by Sarika Panda Bhatt, Jitendra Mishra, and Akash Basu, this documentary is both a wake-up call and a beacon of hope. Don’t miss this eye-opening exploration of survival, awareness, and the urgent need for change in road safety.
Screening of the film (approx. 20 minutes) followed by a panel discussion with the director (Sarika Panda) and one of the physicians featured in the film, Dr. Mathew Varghese (St. Stephens Hospital, New Delhi).
