Green. That is the colour of Bhubaneswar right now. Literally. And metaphorically too – for me at least, and I am sure, for my co-participants at the International Green Screen Lab 2012, focused on developing quality screenplays for Indian children’s cinema. For an Assamese, the deep shades of green during the monsoons is nothing new, Assam and the rest of North-East India having been endowed with nature’s bounty. But it is the metaphorical green that has engulfed the campus of Kiit University in the Odisha capital that is intoxicating me at this moment – it’s the colour that has inspired this screenwriting lab (click link above for the backgrounder). And it has kind of engulfed my senses too – the idea of writing and making cinema that remains environment-friendly during conceptualisation and execution is too exciting for a person who grew up close to nature but now lives in a concrete jungle called New Delhi.
