Satyanshu is a National Award-winning filmmaker and writer. He wrote the poems that you see in Udaan, he wrote lyrics for Ferrari Ki Sawari, and he directed Chintu Ka Birthday along with his brother Devanshu.
He is conducting cinema lectures online with filmmakers, writers, cinematographers, technicians, and artists. He is not charging anything for these lectures. All you have to do is make a donation to any of the COVID-19 relief funds.
I came to know about these lectures from Facebook. I knew for a fact that Satyanshu is a student of cinema, and he talks very passionately about cinema. I remember seeing him in AIB’s First Draft promotional videos. I remember watching Chintu Ka Birthday in a theatre which was half-full.
If you are an aspiring maker or a film buff then I would highly recommend you to join these lectures. You will donate towards a good cause, and at the same time learn a few good things. Here is a list of the upcoming lectures.
- 2nd May 2020 – 5 pm to 9 pm – Lecture with Shoojit Sircar (Piku, October, Madras Cafe, Pink)
