Hey Pune peeps! Did you know that a new short film called Abhilaasha was just launched at the NFAI on Law College Road? This film is all about raising awareness about juvenile diabetes, a serious issue that is on the rise, especially among children. In honor of World Diabetes Day and Children’s Day, the film was inaugurated by Medha Kulkarni, a Member of Parliament, who stressed the importance of spending quality time with children and maintaining traditional dietary habits.
Directed by Rahul Panshikar, ‘Abhilaasha’ sheds light on the growing problem of juvenile diabetes, which is being exacerbated by lifestyle changes and lack of attention from parents who are too caught up in their careers. The film also touches on the diminishing role of grandparents in today’s family dynamics, emphasizing the need for a balance between discipline and affection.
‘Abhilaasha’ was made possible with the support of Fleetguard Filters Private Limited through their CSR initiatives, which focus on health and wellness in the community. The event saw the presence of notable figures like Fleetguard Filters Private Limited’s President Sanjay Kulkarni, FITTR founder Bala Krishna Reddy, music director Aparna Panshikar, and expert Diabetologist Dr. Ashwini Joshi.
During the event, Kulkarni highlighted the importance of addressing juvenile diabetes and called for greater awareness through audio-visual mediums like films. Sanjay Kulkarni stressed the significance of instilling healthy habits in children, while Bala Krishna Reddy shared alarming statistics about the rising cases of diabetes in India.
Dr. Ashwini Joshi urged families with a history of diabetes to take proactive measures to ensure a healthier future generation. Director Rahul Panshikar emphasized the need for a balanced and nutritious lifestyle in today’s tech-driven world. The event also featured talks from Samiksha Bhatnagar and Rahul Panshikar, who delivered opening remarks and the vote of thanks.
‘Abhilaasha’ aims to spark conversations about health and lifestyle choices, encouraging families to adopt disciplined living practices. The film features talents like Naresh Dongarwar, Gandhar Bedekar, and performances by Samiksha Bhatnagar, Shreejay Deshpande, and Sanjay Kulkarni. You can watch the short film for free on Youtube, so be sure to check it out and spread the word about this important cause!
