Mysore :<\/strong><\/p>\n

The\u00a0short film\u00a0\u201cWho am I\u201d by the students of Shri Dharmasthala Manjunatheshwara Institute for\u00a0Management Development\u00a0(SDMites) \u2014 Himanshu Singh Gurjar, Omkar Rajyaguru, Piyush Kumar, Aastha Vyas and Ashwin S. Prasad \u2014 won the BoroPlus All India Short-Film Making Contest-2014. This year the contest invited entries on the theme \u2018Crime against Women.\u2019<\/span><\/p>\n

The film was expected to speak about the\u00a0domestic violence,\u00a0sexual harassment, income inequality, chauvinism, cultural stereotyping. The theme attracted entries across India and 14 entries were shortlisted for the final round. The entries were judged by the jury headed by Ad Guru Alyque Padamsee (Brand Father of Indian advertising, Padamsee has built over 100 brands).<\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cWho am I\u201d presented the theme and the contest\u00a0expectation\u00a0in five minutes which made it to top the contest.<\/span><\/p>\n

Himanshu Singh Gurjar, who\u00a0led\u00a0the \u201cWho am I\u201d team says, \u2018\u201cIt was then, when there was a storm of Damini\u2019s case (16 December 2012) across the nation that I wondered what is all this happening in the neighborhood in our country, may be in our city next, what if it is our own people? That very thought was\u00a0awakening\u00a0for me, I knew it is not possible to change everything but I wanted to raise my\u00a0voice, against this crime. It was enough of wondering and I knew it is always the action that has stood strong against the injustice.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n

Another team member Ashwin S. Prasad says \u201cWho am I is an attempt which is not just a film but also a question from each and every Damini of our society to me, to you and to everyone. We\u00a0don\u2019t need to answer anyone at all; we just need to answer ourselves. You don\u2019t know her, she may act strong and happy, but she cries to sleep at night. You don\u2019t know the main story behind her story, and you can\u2019t even make assumptions, because her story is far different from yours. But she is present everywhere. We just need to open our realistic eyes.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n

This video was not possible without the support of SDM-IMD\u00a0student community\u00a0who helped in spreading the message across the nation through social media platform.<\/span><\/p>\n
