We first chatted with Onir about I Am way back in 2009, the film was still in production with I Am Abhimanyu complete and I Am Omar getting ready to go to the floor and still two more films I Am Meghna and I Am Afia to be made. I Am explores stories not usually seen in Hindi films including sexual abuse, discrimination against homosexuals, artificial insemination and ethnic cleansing in Kashmir. About the film Onir told us, “When it is released in theaters, I want people to see it as cinema with interesting content, telling them stories they have not heard about. I don’t want it to be perceived as a public service documentary I am making. It is a film, a film with a certain important content, which makes you also think. It should entertain as a film, but at the same time it makes you think.”

Rating: **1/2
A motley mix of actors come together in four short stories about identity in an evolving India. In I Am Afia, a jilted wife resolves to raise a child alone and seeks a sperm donor. In I Am Megha, a Kashmiri-Pandit woman returns to a ravaged Kashmir to find that she has become more hostile than her environment is.
