First Animated film on Female Foeticide
When I read this story about Mr. Hardeep Singh Gill winning acclaim for his animated movie on Female Foeticide (first in India), I gave his office (Pumpkin Academy of Digital Arts) a call to ask whether I could get a copy of the movie. My call was promptly forwarded to Mr. Gill, and he immediately replied to my request in affirmative. Not only that, he also offered me his support if I ever needed it in the future for Unchaahi. A thorough gentleman Mr. Gill is the chairman and managing director of PADA that specializes in providing world class training in 3D Animation, Computer Graphics and VFX. The Academy, located at Rajouri Garden in New Delhi, is the biggest of its kind in the country.
With Mr. Gill's permission, I am uploading the much praised film in this blog post. The film earned critical acclaim from leader of opposition in India's Lok Sabha L.K. Advani [when it] was screened at Vigyan Bhavan, New Delhi, during a seminar on female foeticide in New Delhi.
Touted as the first animated movie based on the issue plaguing the entire nation (female foeticide), the 1 min 20 sec movie has been able to convince the some people of New Delhi to fight against the social evil.
Designed by Gill, who hails from Jamshedpur, the movie has been chosen by the Punjab governor and senior administrative officials to be telecast on leading television channels, in theatres and public places in Punjab.
Please leave your thoughts about the video. Alternatively, you can also email PADA at infoATpumpkininteractiveDOTin.

Nice ! Saw it without sound since I am not carrying my headphones and everyone's working fiercely in office !! :) The cute animated girl with big blue eyes ( y not black ? ) makes up for the story line cliche. The effort is commendable and I wish there are more of such messages delivered with a punch at the grass root level.

This is really amazing, the students who made this should be commended. I watched it twice and invriable twitch when the big butchers knife is brandished.
Again Kudos to the PADA team, good luck to them and hope to see many more creative projects.

Thanks Roop..
I am here to stay.
I have started posting a link to this blog in some of the Indian forums here in Kuwait and and also as a signature on my emails. The least that I can do since this matter is close to my heart. I am also posting a link whenever I see a blog with similar write-ups. I think awareness is what we need and I am proud to promote this blog which is blossoming so well. T
Thanks to one and all...

a wonderful film that had me cry. i went to my baby daughter and hugged her for a good ten minutes.she was stunned by the sudden display of affection and also very happy. i am so insanely proud of my baby girl and love her to bits. i pity those who reject this wonderful gift by god. :-)

Consider an evolutionary explanation for the cause of female infanticide. It occurs to keep the non ideal males in a patrifocal society from mating. Visit http://www.neoteny.org/?p=132 for details.
