10 things you did'nt know about Children's day
The world celebrates their children on 20th of November but India wishes its children a happy children's day on 14th of November
On an average, a 4 year old child asks 437 questions a day. . . (or more)
A 3 year old boy's voice is louder than 200 adults in a gathering! ! !
His love for innocent young hearts is well known but Pandit Nehru was said to be India's special child on his becoming the first prime minister after independence.
We promised our children all the care & love in the world. But not every child gets the freedom to enjoy childhood.
Celebrating children's day universally was suggested by an Indian,
V.K. Krishna Menon & later was adopted by UN General Assembly
For children, Watching television alone can act as a painkiller. . .
grown ups bitch & smile, Children play & laugh
I brought children into this dark world because it needed the light that only a child can bring

The dirtier they are, happier they are

Chotu Chaiwala (A short film) by Akshat Drama Group
Chotu Chaiwala goes on air
Chotu
Chaiwala is a story which ventures deep into education & human perspective.
The country promises each & every citizen to provide education as the most
basic right, a fundamental right. A right which a child has since birth, which
he can claim, but the question is, from whom?
A
small child who has a dream, of books, of papers, of education finds a piece of
paper thrown away by kids playing, the nurtured ones. He finds it, treasures
it, feels connected to his dreams but again loses it to reality. Nevertheless,
he does not lose hope.
Life
is all about being happy. He was happy in whatever he got, be it a simple piece
of paper. It all depends on perspective. How one thinks of an object.
Hope
is beautiful
VISION
OF THE DIRECTOR -
What
may be a piece of paper to one can sometimes become a source of hope to
another. This is our very first visual production completed in 4 days of a life
altering experience because we found our calling on the sets.
WHY
WE DID THIS
This
movie raised our sympathy to those kids. There are many of us not even
bothering to look at them with anything other than scorn or worse,
indifference. If this movie makes one mind aware, then it’s worth it.
Awareness raises sympathy & out
of 100 such people, one of them will do something more. That, is our goal

Dreams make you bitchy
When I dream, I am a bitch. I am constantly jealous of other people.
When I start working on the dream, I am a nag. I keep pestering everyone about why the deuce am I doing something I saw in a dream & can remember only faint whispers of it.
A month later, If I am still working on it. . . I am hopeful, I smile
