Roshni – Short Film to Promote Eye Donation
Title: ROSHNI – THE EYELIGHT
Director Name: AMIT WADHWA
Original Language:- HINDI
Duration : – 3 min 24 sec
WE ALL ARE REALLY BLESSED TO WITNESS THE BEAUTY AND EVERYTHING AROUND US, BUT SOME PEOPLE ARE NOT THAT LUCKY.
IN INDIA ALONE, THERE ARE AROUND 12 MILLION PEOPLE WHO HAVE EYES, YET THEY ARE UNABLE TO SEE WHAT ALL IS SURROUNDING THEM. FOR SUCH PEOPLE EVERYONE HAS A SIMILAR FACE, EVERYTHING HAS A SAME MEANING.
ONE SUCH GIRL IS ROSHNI, WHO IS VISUALLY IMPAIRED AND CAN’T ADMIRE THE BEAUTY OF LIFE. ALL SHE DOES IN THIS FILM IS, EXRESS HERSELF IN WORDS AND RELATED SENTIMENTS FLOW ALONG. THE FILM TALKS ABOUT HER FEELINGS AND NOTHING ELSE.
SHE IS NOT ASKING/ REQUESTING ANYONE FOR HELP, TO BE KIND TO HER, SHOW HER SYMPATHY. SHE IS SIMPLY ATTRACTING OUR MIND TOWARDS A COMMON POINT THAT WE GENERALLY MISS OUT ON.
Country of Production – INDIA
Year of Production – 2015

Antardrishti – a social development organisation is committed to the cause of blind people in our society. Towards this we had made a humble beginning in 2006. It is registered as a Public Charitable Trust under Indian Trust Act, 1882. In our country, after the so long time after Independence still people are suffering from blindness due to lack of proper information and treatment. In similar way the person who becomes blind or losses his eyesight is not able to connect himself with the main stream of society due to lack of proper information and encouragement. Antardrishti stand with #Eye Care, #Eye Donation and Empowerment of #Visually Impaired.
Need of the hour is to raise awareness level of the society towards eye care, eye donation and empowerment of blind people.
