As a painter, I have evolved to understand textures of life. Of time, feelings and relationships. Often, I enter a labyrinth of situations plagued by conflict and contradictions, which I end up resolving in unusual and creative ways. They empower me with a new energy to find beauty in adversity. An instinct God has blessed all of us with. The moment you begin to see it as a realm of art, the world immediately becomes different. Starting from a haze of bewilderment, things start to become clear. As a painter, I began to see things with a different vision.

Muzaffar Ali's Umrao Jaan
"I work on certain deep-rooted emotions that are connected with my culture. You are led to them through various circumstances and social influences.
In a way, I am led to make the films I make."
~Muzaffar Ali
