Young Students Of Ludhiana Capture HIV/AIDS Awareness On Film
Ludhiana school goers have brought out  a documentary film on HIV/AIDS awareness. Despite the subject being quite challenging for school kids, the attempt has been appreciated by all.  

Even when the actors, technicians and director of the film Choti Si Aasha (the little hope) were not hardcore professionals, everyone was resolute to play a role for public awareness on HIV/AIDS. They spent their vacation to complete the documentary film.

Student Director, said: “The film mainly appeals people that it's the knowledge of this HIV/AIDS disease that can prevent and reduce the affect and amount of the HIV virus and disease.”

Karanbeer Singh, Student cameraman, said: “From this film we learnt that AIDS does not spread by touching anyone, as by touching we can only spread love. So AIDS is not a disease spreads infection by touching.”

It took four months to complete the film “Choti Si Aasha” which is about an HIV/AIDS affected girl whose parents have die of disease. Her aunt adopts the orphan girl, despite husband's objection she helps her in getting admission in a school. The moral support of aunty helps the little girl to fight HIV/AIDS.

The film was finished with the technical assistance by a Delhi-based NGO. But the major contribution in acting and production was of students of Ryan International School, Ludhiana.

Not just schoolchildren but some parents have also acted in the film to fight and spread mass awareness about HIV/AIDS.
