Did you know Vishal Bhardwaj's 2013 film 'Matru Ki Bijlee Ka Mandola' reflected farmers' crisis in the country?

Ace director and music composer, Vishal Bhardwaj, who has made some super hit films like 'Omkara', '7 Khoon Maaf', 'Haider', 'Rangoon', 'Kaminey' and others recently took to Twitter, to express his thoughts on the ongoing farmers protest in relation to the new farm laws. He spoke about his 2013 film, 'Matru Ki Bijlee Ka Mandola' and how it spoke about these crises, well before its time. Tweeting an article that spoke about how Vishal's film may have foreshadowed the plight of farmers, he wrote, 'I’m often consoled by my friends that my films are ahead of their time. Unfortunately, in this case, they may be right. #Farmers #FarmersProtest'. The post saw a number of people commenting about it, some in favor and others against the idea. One person wrote in, 'Wasn't Matru about the lands of farmers being taken away. These protests are nowhere about that'.
