I could remember those days we would all set out to go swim in rivers knowing very well that we would be dealt with if the information reaches the door steps of our homes. I thought of how i can bring back that nostalgic feeling and the fun of breaking rules with your friends. So i wrote down my ideas in a day and the final script was ready the next day, we went out to shoot this in the most simplest way possible disregarding budget and all. Looking forward to telling more stories about our people.
