Note:
This is just a very rough piece and there is a lot of detail
that can be added depending upon the budget because det ai l s wi l l
r equi r e r i ch set and a l ot of scenes and changes. The wr i t i ng wi l l
al so have backgr ound musi c at var i ous pl aces and backgr ound t hought
vocal s can al so be used f or mor e bet t er under st andi ng but t hat al l
depends upon what ki nd of set we wi l l have. The f ol l owi ng can al so be
t ur ned i nt o a smal l onl i ne Fi l m. The scr i pt can al so be t r ansl at ed t o
Ur du but i t s t r ue f l avour l i es i n t he Engl i sh. The pl ay i s t ot al l y
f i ct i onal and i t doesn t copy anyone s per sonal l i f e. I can do l i t t l e
musi c composi t i on and I t hi nk we wi l l have someone on gui t ar t o pl ay
i t .
Again this is just a very rough sketch that is further in
process.
