19 September - 28 October, 1938- India's legendary journalist and filmmaker Khwaja Ahmad Abbas is in Geneva to attend a meeting of the League of Nations but he finds the proceedings useless. India's freedom fighter Jawahar Lal Nehru also happens to be in Geneva. Abbas meets Nehru. Both have a low opinion of the League of Nations.
But Abbas has the most scathing remarks reserved for 'racist' London and its 'ugliness' when he visits England.
Presented by broadcaster Pervaiz Alam, the Cineink series 'Musafir Ki Diary' is based on a travelogue written by KA Abbas. It's produced by Achala Sharma in association with the Delhi-based Khwaja Ahmad Abbas Memorial Trust.
