A new creative voice is making waves in the world of cinema — Isha Chhabra, a young filmmaker and performer based in the United States, who has directed and featured in the soulful music video Gulistan Chale. The song, composed, written, and sung by A.R. Rahman, is a heartfelt fusion of music, visuals, and emotion, now streaming on Global Glow Films’ YouTube channel. Blending cinematic storytelling with Rahman’s timeless soundscape, Gulistan Chale unfolds as a poetic visual journey. Each frame reflects Isha’s keen eye for aesthetics and emotional depth, complementing the maestro’s evocative melody. Despite being a student filmmaker, Isha displays remarkable command over direction, performance, and mood — making her a promising new talent to watch.
Speaking about the project, Isha Chhabra shared, “I wanted to tell a story through emotions rather than dialogue. Balancing both acting and direction was challenging but fulfilling. Working with A.R. Rahman’s music was a dream come true — his compositions brought soul to every frame. I’m truly grateful to ARR for his guidance and thankful to Global Glow Films for believing in my vision.” Currently pursuing filmmaking studies in the USA, Isha adds that her global learning experience has helped her bring an international cinematic sensibility to Indian-rooted emotions and storytelling. With Gulistan Chale, A.R. Rahman’s hauntingly beautiful vocals merge seamlessly with Isha’s sensitive direction, creating a visual symphony that stays with the audience long after it ends. The collaboration marks a unique creative meeting — a young filmmaker’s artistic vision brought to life through the music of a legend.Watch Gulistan Chale now on Global Glow Films’ YouTube channel:
