In Rehmat, Naseeruddin Shah plays Rashid Ali, a Punjabi Muslim returning to his birthplace in Punjab, a hometown he knew only before Partition, after a life in England. The Virginia Film Festival's October programme highlighted that premise, screening the film on 21 October.

It is a role built around the uneasy distance between the place someone remembers and the place they finally return to.
