My wife Trupti and I have been investing our time and energy to create a community of learning, living, leading and loving people by "Transforming local children and youth into global citizens".

We organise SHORT FILM SHOWs since 2006 in schools & colleges of villages near Valsad, Gujarat, India. (Valsad is our hometown.)

Broad objective of each Film Show is to :

  • develop awareness,

  •  provide in-formal education,

  • share information,

  •  inspire viewers to interact.

  •  get involved into the process of Transformation of the Nation.

We are an independent couple with vision, mission, patience and passion for this project "Margdarshan". We have limited source of income which limits us from expanding and spreading the area of coverage.

However, we very strongly believe if at all something has to be DONE by somebody, why not we ?
