Our Dubbing Course Program, a part of this incredible project, concluded yesterday.

What a journey it's been! "What will be the best way to close the year other than this?"

A huge shoutout to Mr. Uday Sabnis for working his magic and unleashing the talent within our participants. He reminded us of the incredible asset we possess - our voices! His teaching style and patience are truly remarkable.

A big thanks to our distinguished guests at the closing ceremony - Mr. Milind Damle  (FTII), Mr. Balaji (Fiserv), Mr. Bala Siva  (Able Aura), Mr. Bhargava Rao (our short film Director), and Ms. Sushma Ranganathan (Surang Studio). The participants' performances touched hearts, and participants honored our Course Director with traditional attire.

We seized the moment to recognize Lokesh and M S Umapathy , presenting them with cheques for their contributions to our documentary film (video shooting) and story screenplay development for the short film respectively.

Special thanks to Mr. Sandeep Sahare, Mr. Rabeehashmi Sayyid , Mr. Milind Damle, and Mr. Milind Joshi (FTII), Mr. Srini, Mr. Gopa, and the ERG team of Fiserv, along with Team United Way Mumbai, for their fantastic support.

A warm thank you to Fiserv volunteers, Niraj Tiwari  and our friend Sarfaraz for their volunteering support. Hotel Chennai Deluxe staff provided very good service. Together, we're creating a more inclusive world!

During my screenplay writing class this weekend, our course director Mr Niyaz emphasized the distinctiveness of characters. It hit me – everyone is unique for a reason.


He also compared us to gods of our own stories, creating conflict, drama, and solutions. Now I get why blaming God for our problems won't help. It's like God, the ultimate screenplay writer, shaping us into better people through life's challenges.


In this big story of life, we all have a role. If there was nothing for us to do, God wouldn't have created us.

Our online Screenplay Writing Course kicked off this weekend, and I'm not just an organizer but also a participant this time. The first weekend sessions have been a game-changer for me. I now realize how much more I could have improved our short film "When Opportunity Knocks the Recruiter's Door" ( https://youtu.be/ftEXzxhOjM4 ) with the knowledge gained.


Huge shoutout to our Course Director, Niyaz Sir, who's doing an outstanding job. It's amazing how, before this course, I had written the screenplay for our short film without formal training. With the insights from Mr Niyaz Muzawar, I'm excited to take it to the next level! He covered crucial topics like Premise, Character, Conflict, 3-Act Structure, Scene, Scene Design, and Writing a Scene. The homework assignments are taking me back to my school days, and I'm loving every moment of it. Learning new things keeps us young and active!
