In Search of 'Potha'



Future of  India struggling for survival 
After the recent announcement about the short film ‘Potha’, Ath Entertainments has begun the caste and location hunting. “Potha” is a short film which will unveil the street life in the metro cities. It will show the plight and struggles of street children who are bound to a grim fate.  “We have to make it as real as possible, so it is best to explore the street life before we begin with the movie.” , said Producer Apoorva Bajaj.

Street children have been neglected by the society form the beginning. There is no concern, no compassion and no care whatsoever. “The closer you look, the clearer it gets. Lives of those dwelling on streets are far worse than imagined.” , she added.  As the research process is speeding up, many disturbing facts are surfacing. Who knows what else could be found!

Ath Production team is stalking each and every possible corner of Delhi in order to get the perfect locations. Young writer- director Pankaj Narayan is himself digging hard to get the best for his film. “We need such locations which will bring our story to life in a heartbeat. We can’t put anything to chance.” he said. 

It looks as though, we must be ready for our cheeks to get wet and our hearts to be filled with pain and remorse as ‘Potha’ is about to unfold the bitter truth of our society.  The brutality that has prevailed for so long will no longer be hidden under the veil.
