Quotes by Screen Writing Participants :

It was truly life-altering. Not only did I chase away the ‘script demons’ that were troubling me, but also other personal demons thanks to the mythology session. And Anjum Sir reaffirmed my faith in my own intuition. Looking forward for Hands on Writing Workshop.

Anjum Sir is a very inspiring teacher. I suspect he enjoys teaching about screenplay more than the writing of it. Please continue the good work and I hope he can enrich many more lives in the future.

After Attending the Screen Writing Workshop, I am feeling I can write better and I am very much motivated to re writing my script again. Looking forward for Hands on Writing Workshop.

Anjum sir is incredible in all the mentioned aspects! I feel motivated to write the script I have been working on. The workshop was a great experience. Anjum sir is phenomenal. I’m dying to attend the hands-on workshop. I thank everyone involved, including Anjum sir, Kanchi, and Swanand. Looking forward for Hands on Writing Workshop.
