“Making a film is more than just telling a story. It is about bringing visions to life, fulfilling dreams and baring your soul. A good film can change many things; how people view the society, evokes hidden emotions, and showers light on truths. So think out of the box, make your fantasies come true and see how your images make the difference.”
