GRAPHIC NOVEL& STORY BOARD-Adventures of Gattu
Very recently I have made the storyboard for GATTU.
GATTU opened at the 17th International Children's Film Festival at Hyderabad. This film was held in high regards by critics and film reviewers all over the world. This film had been honored with a special mention under Deutsches Kinderhilfswerk category at the 62nd Berlin International Film Festival
In a nation that is obsessed with flying kites, the story is set in a small town Roorkee, Uttarakhand, India, where a nine-year-old orphan, Gattu works in his uncle's garbage-recycling business The blue skies above the town is dominated by a kite named 'Kali'with mysterious origins. Out of the many kids who dream to defeat Kali, Gattu is more determined. He does fail on number of occasions but one fine day, his will finds a way. He discovers a local school having a roof that renders him some strategic advantage. Impersonating as a student, he sneaks into the school and must now pretend to study. The only problem - he can't read and write! The little street urchin takes up the challenge as when the desire is strong, dreams aren't impossible
After gaining international acclaim, 'GATTU' is released in India on 20 April 2012.
