Hi Friends,

Howdy? Hope you enjoyed reading last month's post on the adrenaline rush of high-voltage action films that has got our pulses racing all through 2015!

However this month's post is tad different from the rest as I shall be sharing with you two of my recent works, both of which were entries for the Road Safety India Campaign held earlier this year.Though the results are awaited,nevertheless I just thought of sharing my experience with you in this post. Perhaps,in the chain of things it might inspire some of you to just pick your handy cams and start shooting your own film today.Considering that we live in a digitized world where technology is affordable,accessible and available to all... thus you never know the limitless possibilities and opportunities that beckon each of you aspirant filmmakers out there!

Thus when this opportunity presented itself before me through an advertisement that appeared in the local city newspaper, I asked myself the following questions- Are there any technical specifications specified? Is this film doable? With the limited resources at hand,can I pull off this one on a shoe-string budget? What is the idea? And what are the requirements to put this idea in motion? And when I got the answers to the questions that I was looking for, I began working towards putting my jigsaw puzzle together piece by piece.

"THE OTHER SIDE..." - WATCH THE EXCLUSIVE TEASER OF MY SHORT FILM, SOME INTERESTING TRIVIAS & MORE...

Hi Friends,

How've you been? Did you enjoy reading my last month's blogpost?? Yup...it was about my short film "The Other Side..." and I promised you some more of it in this month's blogpost...so here we are!

In my last month's posting, I chronicled my experiences behind the making of "The Other Side...", spoke about the challenges of making the film on a zero budget and how finally we managed to see it through! :) It was definitely a learning experience for me and what better learning it all in your own production!

Before I share a brief summary on what "The Other Side..." is all about and the teaser of the film, I thought I'd first acquaint you with some of the characters in the film and later in the post share some interesting trivia on our film.

INTRODUCING MY SHORT FILM - "THE OTHER SIDE..."

Hi Friends,

How have you been? Trust all's well at your end? Did you enjoy reading my last month's post?? But..hey, I didn't hear from you through your comments??? Even if you didn't...you can always say so!!

Anyway..in this month's blog post I've got a surprise in store! And today, I thought I'd share the news exclusively on my blog...Howzzzat???  Tired of waiting....okay so here it is..early this year I debuted as a short film maker...yep, I took my baby steps in writing, scripting, editing and directing my short film!  Now months after completion of the film as I look back, I realize it was nothing but a miracle on how it all magically unfolded! And I just can't stop thanking God enough for the people who so willingly and wholeheartedly chose to join me and be a part of this enriching experience.
