The Last Audition

Anand Kumar is a struggling actor consumed by the struggle. The attempt to land a role, and the effects of the audition take over his life. He live, breathes, sleeps this process. In this obsessed role, does Anand land himself the ticket to stardom? Or does this obsession lead to his ruin? A dark tale of one’s life when you cannot differentiate life and camera![12][13][14]

MILSUM

Despite leaps in science and technology, human values and social interaction are taking a back seat to such an extent that we no longer consider it important to speak to a person to know them or make an opinion. We have begun to judge people and make opinions at the drop of a hat, based solely on appearance, religion, caste, financial and social standing, and so on. What is even more fascinating is that we have no idea if we are right or wrong in doing so because in a way we ourselves have created these stereotypes.[15][16]
