Making a film, they can't see

When I came across this post in Times of India, I felt very happy. Such a move is very welcoming. There were many movies in the past that portray how blind people achieve great things in life in spite of their disability. But involving visually impaired people in most of the aspects of film making like actors, actresses, music director, etc is just amazing. There may be films like these made in other countries where people with disabilities do everything just as others without any hesitation. But such a film being made in India, will definitely pave way for more people to prove their talents in future. Just as the Director of the movie mentioned, “It is not a typical 'film for the disabled', but a mainstream cinema subtly structured to educate the masses about issues involving the disabled and drive home the message that they do not need anybody's sympathy”, I hope this movie not only changes the attitude of people towards the visually impaired but also inspire more people with disabilities to shed their fear and come out to light and reveal their talents to the world.
