I belong to a small village, almost all villagers addict of chewing tobacco, almost 50% of villagers are suffering from lung and mouth diseases, somehow my father convinced my grandfather, to quit tobacco, Some time I think, how many fathers in India, convinced their father to drop tobacco, I guess ratio is low, I am 30 year old now, being a film maker, I can’t do anything, accept making a video, and showing them, the consequences of the tobacco.. So I have decided to make a short film on tobacco, earlier I thought of making a documentary, but couldn't able to make it possible, this time, commitment level is high. The best thing about my experience is, I am a desperate wana be director, but I never knocked, I want to direct, I got script, but the level of commitment as a director was very low, this film gave me, a motivation, it’s not I am participating in competition, it’s all because, I started a film and i completed a film. Frankly speaking, if I lose, I don't mind, because this competition gave me new courage a new motivation, if I win, I will appreciate. .

People are still fighting
