## Transcript

2000, Bonneville car. Exactly, Richmond. Don't let the price of this world is a few lines. International Language, my mother tongue at this platform stage Premier event. I would like to say from a revered in scripture body. It was like instant credit. Good morning birthday girl. Is Willis in capitalist. The essence of self selfless action. Emphasizes to be process-oriented. And result-oriented it makes you fall in love with the process. Not the outcome of it. Probably gives you the lessons on Detachment from the fruit of your own labor. Neither did I think nor did I aspire to be here on this Global platform representing my nation.

I was just doing my job as an artist but I mostly during stories which were real eclectic. Relatable stories. We could just trigger a social change in a society. I never thought my simplistic socially responsible approach to ghost art with Usher me to this time hundred in back towards Singapore. India SRI heterogenous we have multiple religions regions 780 languages and we almost 1.5 billion people in population. They have that many stories to tell I was very active as a theater person. Especially Street Theater. Exactly Street. Theater used to go to a public place. Group of actors. And it was not already audience, used to call everyone form a circle and perform act.

I need to encapsulate. The fabric of India, maybe the social fabric of India. It could be fatal. But definitely for the call for social change. And then I started journalism. Did you community radio formula just before shifting my base to a bigger city like New Delhi or Mumbai? All I know is not a Venus of the Grassroots level of India has really evolved me as an artist. We were basically a bunch of Indian basket traveling length and breadth of India. And reaching out to the masses of the lowest common denominator. When I joined films, I think it was just an extension of my street 80 personality.

Play my Sims to be similar to that of being conversation, starters to entertainment. Tonight is a humbling moment for me to be recognized as an artist by the prestigious Time Magazine. I'm here to represent India's moment Under the Sun and I'm proud of the fact that India is the follow-through more Progressive storytelling through Cinema. Thank you, Time. Magazine phone, constantly validating my effort, as an artist and encouraging me to trade The Road. Less Traveled after cutting a word. Thank you, Jane.
