Ackshaj Anand is an enthusiastic animator and designer from the pleasant lands of Bangalore, India. With a touch of whimsy, he has an avid passion for sketching and is interested in exploring all forms of storytelling, from animation and comics to tabletop and video games.
As an avid observer of humans, I’ve come across many situations where people try to fit in too much. My intention with this film is not to highlight a problem and give a solution but rather to creatively and humorously showcase scenes to point out societal obligations and just bring out relatable moments in people’s lives.
