Believed to be an economically and culturally important aspect of India, the cow and the scientific aspects related to bovines will now be depicted on the large screen. The movie titled Ma will be released by Yoga guru Swami Ramdev and Acharya Balkrishna on Sunday. According to the makers of the movie, the film presents various aspects of the economy based on the cow in a manner that is not only interesting but will also enable the farmers to become more prosperous.
About a decade ago, Swami Vishuddhanand had arrived in Uttarakhand on a spiritual quest. While visiting pilgrimage centres and temples, he was disturbed by the sight of stray cattle in dire circumstances on the roads. Deciding to tend to such cows, he made a cave near Koteshwar temple the centre of his efforts. He tended to more than 400 cows at the shelter he facilitated for such stray cattle. About six years ago, he thought of making a movie on the scientific aspects related to the cow. For this, he contacted scientists conducting research on Indian varieties of cows in America, France and Germany. He collected the various research conducted on the cow and began the task of making the movie. He took the services of DS Kasana for directing the film. Vishuddhanand breathed his last about two years ago due to which the movie couldn’t be released earlier. Manoj Joshi plays the lead in the movie with noted singer Sadhana Sargam having sung four songs in the movie.
