Video Diary: There's always something good from the bad...

The scene is set in a bedroom. The pure white walls compliment the dark blue curtains. On the wall is a picture of a boy with a cricket bat. Next to it, a big poster of Sachin Tendulkar. The head of the bed draped in Mickey Mouse sheets is near one of the grilled windows which are open. There sits a boy, the same one in the picture, about the age of 10 sitting near the bed’s head, with his hand upon his chin gazing disappointedly out the window. The shadow of the curtain falls upon his face. We can hear children playing loudly outside. Our protagonist seems sad that he can’t play with those children. That’s when we notice his foot. His right foot from the knee is just a single metal rod, with a shoe attached underneath....

We see one of his longing eyes begin to shed a tear which he doesn’t bother to wipe away. He sits there in despair, lost in his world of sadness still looking out the window.

Enters his mother, with a tender hearted face, holding a glass of milk. She sees the boy looking out the window and crying and immediately wipes his tears away. After patting him on the head and giving him a hug, she hands him the glass of milk. He slowly but obediently drinks it. After handing the glass back, he looks up to his mom and asks, “Won’t I ever be able to play like them again, Ma?”

She looks at his face and gives him a reassuring smile. “Yes, you will son...you will...very soon. And not like them, but better than them! All you need is to believe you can do it, and practice hard,” she replies. The room suddenly becomes warmer and the shadows on the boys face make way for rays of sunshine, which not just illuminate his face but the whole room as such brightens up. Helping him up, holding him by his hand, she leads him out of the room, closing the door. And lo, at the corner of the door lie his bat and a ball, unused for some time...And on the door, an adidas poster with the words, ‘impossible is nothing’ is stuck in bold letters.....
