Welcome to END, a very beginning to my new found hobby, Movie Making. It deals with the delicate subject of suicidal tendencies due to academic failure. With this short film, I have tried to focus on the thinking of one man when he looses all hopes and is about to end himself. With my partner Anup Sarda and actor Shubham Agrawal, END is a single character film mostly shot in our college SRKNEC! I want to thank all my friends who directly and indirectly helped me while making this film. Im really sorry for poor audio quality and some editing mistakes that I have made as Im not very familiar with movie making softwares. With no more talks, here I give you my debut short film! Please like, dislike, comment or criticize and give me your honest opinion! Hope you enjoy it!

Green Zone- Engaging like a real news!
Set your mind back to the year 2003 for a moment, when the invasion of Iraq commenced. Highest levels of American government offered assurances that the invasion was a necessity in order to remove the clear and present danger presented by Sadaam Hussein's weapons of mass destruction (or WMDs, as they're more commonly referred to).
Green Zone directed by Bourne director Paul Greengrass deals with the same situation and seeks the truth behind this invasion. Movie revolves around Roy Miller and his troop who are on the mission to find these WMD's but come bare handed every time they get information from their source. Claiming that source is fake, he demands the truth behind this information but as usual, rejected. With the help of a local Iraqi he tries to find out the truth on his own and thus begins the cat and mouse chase.
Green Zone is probably the most realistic and accurate war film i have ever seen. Hand held and overview cinematography makes is play like a news reel. Action sequences are highly tense and very engaging. The location and destructed sets gives the idea of war devastation. Greengrass's direction is very appealing. Performance-wise whole movie relies on Matt Demon and he delivers his best. Apart from Demon, Khalid Abdulla has done superb job as fredy, an Ex-Iraqi soldier who wants to help his country.
Green Zone is highly engaging war thriller. Though the truth behind war does not seems socking after 4 years, it gives us the idea of politics in war. last 30 minutes of movie are highly intense and beautifully directed. Overall Green Zone is a must watch war drama
My Rating-4 out of 5
