There’s a quiet line from a Faiz poem I always remember when watching certain films: "dard kā dard miṭā bhī nahī̃ saktā, dard kī vāsna jagā bhī nahī̃ saktā." Yesterday, I saw that same unspoken ache in a Korean drama’s final scene, and saved it to show my students, for when we discuss how longing transcends language. Afterwards, I walked past my father rewatching an old Sharmila Tagore film in the sitting room, his glasses catching the flicker of the screen—another kind of lesson altogether.
