Ho Sake To | Official Lyrical Video
A Film by Ayush Wadhwa
I am sure all of you will have a unique interpretation of the video. But I just wanted to share my thought process and interpretation of the song and how I then transformed it into visuals. Here goes:
1. The clouds surrounding the singer, in the beginning, signify the inability of a person to see through things when he is at his absolute low. The song through my perspective portrays the begging phase of a relationship, where the person going through the breakup is clouded by opinions, emotions, self-doubt and even hatred sometimes. They unknowingly end up dropping their self-respect to a point where they are begging for something extremely toxic for them.
2. There are two guitar solos in the song, to which I have given a treatment with very intense red lighting. The first solo signifies the love aspect of the colour red where the singer is lost in his memories. Memories, which at one point were very beautiful. But soon after we see a change in the mood as the lyrics resume again. Here, he comes back to his present state, the state of begging.
3. The second solo which is at the very end signifies more angst in the colour red. Here he is recalling the memories which were formed at the very end of the relationship. These memories are full of fights and tough moments, hence angst and frustration. It is that part of the song where he is remembering the final separation of two beautiful souls. This approach in the ending guitar solo is a metaphor to the end of his relationship.
Overall, my whole idea was to keep the video as simple as I could because both Sagar & I wanted the listeners to come up with their interpretation. Hence, you'll see very long takes, smooth transitions and an overall simplistic video. Let me know what you think of my interpretation and I would love to know yours as well in the comment section :)
