 Parvez, it is good to know that you already have prepared something. To begin with you could send a copy to us (Yousuf or Rahul Roy). We are collecting the already available material. But soon I will send a detailed guideline on how and on what format to send the copies.

Excellent idea. 
I finished a series of 4 TV spots on the issue
yesterday... in other words that is what i wanted to
SAY or DO. 
m in the process of sending the copies to various TV
channels, hoping that some one may telecast them.

If any of u could help me with contacts in various
channels i will b obliged.

i can send a tape to you (who? & where? is not clear).
also could u plz elaborate on how they would b used?
... will people access these films from YOU or will u
actively engage in passing them around? 
would like to know what modalities have u worked on
that.
also what does the 'deadline 30th august mean'?

i started work on these spots entirely on my own but
managed to raise just abt enuf assurances (at the
moment) for funds that will cover the costs of tapes &
edit facilities.
however i do intend to continue working on this.

do let me know who all have u contacted in bangalore i
can offer whatever support i can here (since i m
presently based in bangalore).

my background:
doctor (used to work in psychiatry)
making films since 10 yrs now (started in delhi)
basically a director
also do Camera
can edit very fast on beta
have a very basic digital sound recording facility at
home.

look forward to ur response (s)
best wishes
