And now we all wait......

I began this blog by writing about a short film (One Square) that was made by three of my friends. Swati, Prasad and Swapnil have done it again. Their new short film, 'Kya aam aadmi surakshit hai' has been shortlisted in the 3rd ICE film festival. It was screened today morning at City Pride, Kothrud. The joy of seeing one's creation on the big screen was writ large on their faces. I could share all the excitement as I also played a little part in the making of the film. After a month of hectic running around, shooting, post-production, editing and endless long nights of working, the film is now in the hands of viewers. It feels like we have just come out of a major exam. And now, we are also awaiting the results - today evening - 7 to 9 pm. I myself find it difficult to suppress the excitement.....

Something about the three of them and this film. After the shooting was over, they found that a HUGE portion the footage had got damaged and there was no way they could have completed the film with whatever was left. Refusing to give up, they decided to shoot it all over again. And their perseverance shows in the quality of the film. Salaam !!!
