'All right, I will share my deepest, darkest secret. I loved my father…like, sons love their fathers, I loved mine too. And aren't sons forever following in their father's footsteps? Even if those footsteps are blighted…?' Weed, a follow-up of the award winning No Guns at My Sons Funeral, is a hard-hitting exploration of uneasy questions that keep raising their insistent heads in the 'war against terror' in Kashmir. Complex issues are examined through the innocence of a child caught in a web he never spun.
