Director Statement

Change of thinking was just a reason of the film is composed of...
Here is a film made by thinking. I always think the reason behind being Rich or Poor is thinking of people ,Thinking makes one poor or rich. If a beggar takes decision with determination that he wants to do something in life , he will be able to urge something in his life rather than spending a insulting life.
Basically , this film has been made to show Human Dignity , willpower and the power of positive thinking .
