- 'This Circle is Mine' is a short documentation of a day in the life of Krishnadas, a man who stands everyday for hours on end at Juhu Circle in Mumbai with a sign that says 'Apne dharm par chalo, sabse prem karo (Follow your religion, love everybody)'. The film documents various aspects of his day, the opinions of his admirers, detractors and people who work around the crowded junction of Juhu circle.
The film was screened at the 13th Mumbai Film Festival, 2011 in the 'Dimensions Mumbai' category where it received special mention by the jury.
hats off dude... I always watch u once in a week when I go for classes!! great courage and great work done by you.. I also believe that the day is not far away when you WILL change the society through your peaceful message.
Such a beautiful message. The man is so positive and full of life! The world needs more of such people.
Thank you so much for this beautiful video.
Love n light to you!
How truly inspiring! Salute him for his determination and dedication .
Some people think it won't amount to anything or won't make a difference, but guess what? It's a good start! Everyone should continue spreading this kind of love and hope,
Cheers xx
I have seen Him many times and always thought very highly of Him .. His message is simple, His smile is infectious and His method of giving the message is amazing. Thanks for making this film and uploading it :)
this story deserves to be told. thanks to the makers for bringing this gr8 man in light.
i see this man virtually every alternate day when I pass by the circle and my initial reaction was to laugh at him and eventually ignore him! but this is perspective i never thought of! nicely captured and pieced together. I think i i now #respect the man. And am grateful to the makers of the video.
We're stuck in the sameness of everyday life.Every day many people cross Juhu Circle.
I was one of them. He stands there with this massage
'Apne dharm par chalo,
sabse prem karo'
Everyday We saw each other we shared smiles and I continued my journey.
For 4 years I did this. He always smiled and made my day with his message.
You will still find him at his spot. Let's smile back to him and spread his message.
yes Siva.. i agree with you! awesome video. Juhu Circle is always blocked with heavy traffic.. and I'm often stressed and frustrated. But then i see this man.. with that perpetual smile on his face.. spreading non-communal love. I can't help but smile back at him! It makes my day!
Unadulterated, Unseen, Unforgettable, UnderRated, Unhighlighted & UNIGNORABLE COMMON INDIAN with uncommon selfless desire! :-) Salute to you Sir! :-)
HE always brings a smile to my face when I pass by, and if all he achieves is to make people smile, it is a great feat in this stressful city where a smile is so rare.
For months I asked me what he wanted he always said no even to water, then last monsoon I asked him if I could get him a raincoat and he said only if it is white :-) So happy to see him in the raincoat in this clip.
Very nicely shot, sleek editing and a subject which will talk to people!! Great stuff !!
Moving. Inspiring. Touching. What a man, and what a story.
I used to see this guy everyday at Juhu circle when I was in Mumbai. Often thought of talking to him and finiding out more about his life. Glad u made this film Harshvir. Thanks. :)
It's not about him, who makes the difference. It's us, who will take his message to heart and change our ways. He only reminds us of what we already know.
Beautiful! Those of you who can see him any time, you are so lucky! In America, they would probably lock him up. :-( Thank you for making this so the rest of us can see him. There are many in the West who want to hear this.
this man is just doing an outstanding work... hats off to him...
Being Human... really appreciate his work.... lovely message spread :)
salute Krishnadas!!! Angels around us, n great job guys who made this film, god bless
A fond Bombay memory: Why passing Juhu circle every morning was the highlight on certain ragged days. Remembering Krishnadas with a smile on my face. ...Roop Majumdar
I see him everyday and whenever I smile at him he smiles back ...come rain ..sun..wind whatever ...he stands there for peace
I've passed by this man 5 days a week for the last 2 years, and I've come from thinking "what the fuck is wrong with this crazy dude" to "I wish I knew what he does". I give him a smile & a wave everyday now, and he gives me a nod & smile back the best he can in the heat.. What a guy, Mumbai needs chaps like him.
Good stuff! After seeing him the 1st time I was looking out for him the 2nd time I passed the junction. He always brings a smile to my face & I hope people inculcate the message he propagates!
brilliant. a couple of talented people ... and sheer magic!
Great work guys... Thanks for making the short and sharing his work.
krishnadas is superb and this docu is no less very good story telling.
wow! this man deserves a standing ovation from the rest of us.
Good work all those who involved in making this video and letting the world know about him.. Congratulations guys .. your message is reached !!
What a wonderful documentary - thank you!
I have often seem him and have been very curious about him. Am happy to see this video and know more about him. It is people like him who just go out and do what they feel needs to be done that bring hope to this world
Saw it again today. Harshvir and Karunesh... this is a masterpiece.
sabse pyar karo apne apne dharm par vishwas rakho, pyar baanto..... there is no other message which humanity can recieve.
great work! kudos to the makers for bring this story!
I can't believe I haven't seen this one. Amazingly done guys. Big up to Harshvir, Karunesh, Achint and the rest of the guys associated with this short.
PS - I love this guy!
Very well made and thank you for solving the confusion in my mind about this guy!
Ive always wondered since past year i guess....about why is this man standing. But never spared the time to ask him myself. You people brought this to everyone's notice..... Good work done. Cheers.

I had heard about him before, but I saw him for the first time today, standing alone with his sign in the smoke and sweltering afternoon heat. I wanted to get off the bus and talk to him and give him a drink. Maybe some other day. Respect.
great work man, Im a film student in san francisco, but originally from bombay i remember this guy holding his banner at juhu circle a number of times from my last visit. Loved it. I'd like to collaborate sometime with you and others involved in making this documentary. Keep up the good work.

Wow not even 10 days...& over 10K clicks...Awesome job Harshvir!!..Keep It Up!! :D
Very Nice......Keep it Up.....:)
Beautiful! :)
@shrutich Seriously in very simple small acts lies happiness strength determination. Please upload some more videos
Humko dheere dheere hi sudharna hoga !
That is one line for all naysayers who look for dramatic changes based on any good act as if this is a movie and not real life.
That fact that he influenced at least a few people is good enough as they may in turn pass on that feeling, affecting the well being of the society in the long run.
I see him almost everyday!
Love it!!! We will love all!!! hahahah!
Nice work! :)
nothing but #respect for him!!!!!
What a guy.....no matter how torrential the rain is....he will wait for it to stop....so that he can get back to his junction....and spread his thought ! :D
very well made.
hmm.. interesting!! question is does the act of documenting something might dilute the cause? i remember the first time i saw krishnadas..it had a huge impact on my soul..rarely does one sight captures u and makes u question urself or the functioning of the society.
@surd12 Good cause, Great idea to capture it and an even better idea to share it with all people around the world.
You should consider entering it into this video competition about India Is.. I think this will definitely fit under the theme 'India Is... creative"
One man, pushing a message that we all know but always forget to follow!! Isn't that creative and inspiring? Consider it!!
Finally, His story is told!
Do you see the crazy number of views this is getting Shvir?!! So proud of you!!! Now I am exclaiming like Raje. :P
@shrutich can you upload more videos of him , its inspiring
good stuff guys:)
@surd12 Buddy.. Glad to see you've taken the initiative to capture this man's message of peace, harmony and love. Unity is something that is always questioned, especially in our country. You've got a good story, and one that should be shared with a global audience. :)
By entering the competition - indiais.org - besides winning cash prizes, there are some crazy cool cameras + more to be won. Immense exposure for your short video and it's story. Do consider entering the competition. Very easy!
Respect
I wonder if he's still doing this in 2022 when this message is most needed. Can someone confirm?
Well made. :)
Arjun Panwar we are proud of you :)
well made :)
today..i know..some body documented his reasons. and i no longer question.
Apne dharam pe chalo ya 'na chalo' - lekin, sabse prem zaroor karo!
What about those who don't follow any religion?
A batman for every gotham city !!!!
I wonder if the people who are interviewed in this video have ever bothered to implement on the message shared by Krishnadas. Yeh Mumbai hai meri jaan... people die on roadside and no one bothers to give a second look.
i would smile at this guy and he'd smile back every time and urge me to the read the placard i n his hand. this is the least he deserves. well done :)
but this mystery man did.. coz the first thing i asked to myself was ..why is he doing this? followed by ..what am i doing! after that everytime i would pass juhu circle..i would look out for him... playing a game to figure his act..only to keep my soul searching..
self appointed sage ! but I like his approach, novel !
aaaawwww...PARLE G!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! 1:15
@solracaujiane2 - with a smile... :)
@XxinuyashaluvrxX - Let us not hate them in return.
