Just watched It’s Only 47°C.
Absolutely loved how honestly it captures a future that no longer feels distant. Climate change isn’t a distant threat anymore we are living through it, from record-breaking heatwaves, extreme weather, floods and wildfires are becoming part of our reality, in India and across the world.We need to be talking about the climate crisis far more than we do not just an environmental issue. It is shaping our economy, our health, our livelihoods, and the future of every generation to come. Awareness alone isn’t enough. It must spark dialogue and dialogue must lead to action.
If we are serious about this climate crisis has to become central to every development and public policy conversation.
Also, by complete chance I happened to meet the film’s co-producer and research lead Harish Borah a few days ago. It was wonderful to know that he is back in Assam. I hope we get to see many more powerful stories like this that reflect the realities of our region and state and shine light on the climate challenges facing our region and spark meaningful conversations on issues that matter most to Assam.
Highly recommend watching It’s Only 47°C.

@TeestaSetalvad@tejsisodia01 Thank you @TeestaSetalvad 🙏 The film exposes climate-change's unequally impact across class; the quite surrendering of the most vulnerable between us; & encourages audience to look up if their city administrations have a Heat-Action-Plan in place to protect them in a #heatwave!
From a young and dedicated film-maker. @tejsisodia01 who thinks, feels, creates. Not just for himself. For us.D future. It’s Only 47°C, a short film, tht I had the privilege of watching , hs been produced by Naseeruddin shah & Civic Studios;Tej Sisodia has written & directed it. What does it say? @h25borah
It explores extreme climate changes: one of the defining challenges of our time: not in d abstract, but d unequal way extreme heat is experienced by us all living in the same city. While some retreat behind air-conditioning, millions of outdoor workers have no choice but to continue working through increasingly dangerous temperatures. Do we care? Please watch
