And I kissed him in the middle of the street.. (Script)



Scene 1:
Ext/Day/A secluded road

Alan anxiously waits for Amy, sitting on a raised pavement, constantly checking his watch. (Mid Long shot: Alan looking down at his fingers with a worried expression / Background music)
(BG: He sits in front of a closed shutter near a Y junction adjacent to the road)

As a blurred silhouette approaches him, Alan takes out his mobile phone and dials Amy's number. (Close up)

Amy comes into view, walking towards Alan with a tear-stained face. (Shoulder shot of Amy)
Alan stands up, looking at Amy, who appears distressed. (Medium Long shot with music playing in the background) (BG: Junction in the background)

They walk together in silence. (Long shot)

Alan attempts to speak, but Amy starts talking. "My mom kept me awake all night, Alan. She asked me to choose between you and my parents." (Medium shot)

A worried expression crosses Alan's face as he wipes off a bead of sweat. (Medium Close up of Alan as he looks at Amy)

Amy glances at the road and says, "I told her I love you and that I can't let you go." (Pan left towards Alan Medium Shot)

"She was furious, Alan!" she says, a tear escaping her kohl embellished eyes.
(Alan wears a tortured expression) (Close ups of each)

"I tried to convince her, but she wouldn't budge. I asked her why, and she said it's because you're a North Indian, and I'm too young to be in love. We don't have jobs, and she's not sure if she can trust us." She sighs and looks at him.

His eyes convey his feelings to Amy, "I can't bear to lose you. Please don't break my heart like this." (Medium Long shot as they continue walking on the road. Zoom out to a long shot and then zoom back to Medium Long shot)

"But, Alan, I love you. I can't bear to lose you either. Let's just wait." And as she was leaving... (Middle of the street: Alan pulls her hand, she looks at him teary-eyed, and he lets go)

Amy looks around, finding the street empty. (BG: under a tree.) She approaches Alan (Medium shot) and kisses him on the lips. It's their first kiss. (Medium Long shot)

Alan is stunned. What just happened? We were on the verge of breaking up. Why did she kiss me? He looks at Amy, astonished and confused. (Medium Close up of Alan as he looks at Amy walking away / road / broad daylight)

"I'll never let go. I promise. I just can't. I love you too much." She turns back to look at Alan, who is still surprised, and she smiles. (Shoulder shot of Alan and Medium Long shot of both)

As he watches her walk away, he knows he must do everything in his power to win her over from her parents, with their permission. Determined to intertwine their lives, he walks in the other direction, this time, with a smile on his face.

The journey of love through the ages

The Journey of Love Through Ages Every one of us at any point in our lives must have wondered, what is love? The real definition may be a mystery or not because science actually doesn't approve or have proof of love, yet people say they have fallen in love. Maybe love is like water. It molds itself to the changing situations. Let us have a look at the journey of love through ages.. Earlier (man) stages: There was nothing called love. Even if there was, it made no sense. People just lived to eat and they satisfied their physical needs with maybe anyone or anything. Later the same time: There may be...was love, but people didn't pay much attention to it. People lived with each other for the sake of living or maybe lived with the person who fetched them food. Last stages of this stage: People had multiple partners so that they had their options open! Especially m

Tech-No-Logic

Dependency on Technology There have been numerous short films, debates, discussions, and videos in the past few days on our increasing dependency on technology. Whether it's the addiction to selfies, social networking sites, games, or even general news, we are breathing and thriving on technology. The raging debate of the hour is, can we survive otherwise? If not for all this technology, can we call ourselves developed or developing? Probably not. There was a time when man discovered fire, and there was a time it burnt his entire habitat. It is now that time of the hour when the match is ignited with absolute precision, and it will have the elastic or boomerang effect on all of us. We are increasingly seeing school-going kids handling smartphones and iPhones like experts on a space mission. In the name of se

Baby We're Addicted!

In the past few days, there have been numerous short films, debates, discussions, and videos highlighting our increasing dependency on technology. Whether it's the addiction to selfies, social networking sites, games, or news in general, technology has become an inseparable part of our lives. The ongoing debate questions whether we can survive without this technology and still consider ourselves developed or developing. EFLUites, the students and lecturers of EFL University, share their perspectives on the matter. Spandana, an EFLU student, observes people walking into her on campus, engrossed in their phones, and even her classmates browse their mobiles during class. She believes that we are becoming slaves to technology, which will have consequences in the near future. However, she acknowledges that technology is a boon for handling assignments and research, but emphasizes the importance of setting  limits. EFLU lecturers also share similar concerns, as technology has led to an
