/> This week the Pope watched Bhavna Talwar's film Dharm. We now hear that the Vatican has assigned Bhavna the job of researching and making a film on the rosary and its links with holy beads the worldover.

Bhavna, laid up with a slipped disc,is barely able to express her ecstacy through her anguish. "It's a huge hunour. I'll be making a film on the genesis of the rosary and its link with holy beads in other religions across the worlds. "

What fascinates Bhavna about the rosary is its universality. "Hindus, Muslims. Christians...every religion uses the holy beads as a chant. The concept of repetition as meditation is universal and it cuts across all religion and culture. I will be exploring this concept of universality through the holy beads. "

The film which would be a mix of documentary and fiction would take Talwar to various remote parts of the world from Istanbul to Jerusalem and of course the Vatican.

In her endevour to make a film on the rosary Bhavna Talwar would be joined by Italian anthropologist and author Franco La Cecla.

Says Bhavna, "Franco is the one who mediated between me and the Vatican. He is a bit of a creative wanderer. He has written a book on the art of getting lost in unknown cities. I intend to travel with him to various unknown cities to research on the rosary, as soon as my back allows. "
