Osmitay is set against the backdrop of the Konkani-speaking people’s quest for identity. It is woven around a love story and has captivated audiences in the coastal districts of Dakshina Kannada and Uttara Kannada. Based on a story by Konkani writer and music composer Eric Ozario and screenplay by Joel Pereira, the film is more than just a love story between Vivek Albuquerque (Ashwin D’Costa) and Sushma (Wencita Dias).
The story revolves around American-born Konkani-speaking Vivek, studying world cultures in Arizona. He is on a quest to discover his true identity in Mangaluru, where he meets Sushma — who is pursuing her thesis on Konkani culture at the local university — and falls in love with her. They soon embark on a trip to Goa to learn about the Konkani-speaking people, the Inquisition and the fascinating history of the Konkani language, exploring its path through struggle, foreign invasion and exodus.
Director: Vilas Ratnakar Kshatriya
