About sixteen:nine International Film Festival

SNIFF stands for sixteen:nine International Film Festival, launched by the students of Usha Pravin Gandhi College of Management. It promotes student filmmaking and independent cinema through the medium of short films.
Radhika is committee member/content writer for the Literature Department of SNIFF '09. This blog is a record of her thoughts and experiences during the making of SNIFF '09. She is entitled to an opinion about everything and due to superior verbal stamina, she has to talk about it. In general, she loves reading and listening to music in her free-time. Her favourite activities include writing, dancing and playing throwball. She tries to imitate planet Earth and sometimes even the Solar system while moving around, otherwise she's pretty human. Her two standing rules are:
1. No Khan-bashing (Khan being the VCP, who she respects tremendously)
2. No talking about SNIFF over food (which assures a SNIFF-free ambience for at least 2 hours everyday).

27th September

Happiness just got a new definition. I’m sitting in the SNIFF room, having finished my current quota of work. Shaarika on the right doing something on paper, and a laptop. Creatives at work. Music blasting, literally, my ears. A lost-looking, or rather, jobless looking Shantanu wandering around, looking for work to do. (he isn’t jobless apparently, on a break). Sajal seems to be checking mail. Ankur looking his busy self. I haven’t spoken with the fellow more than once, but there’s this certain immense respect I seem to have drawn for him. Shruti’s come, and I’m bound to be asked something. Yeah she asked me if I’d like Peppy. Ali’s here too. Srinath’s busy with his share of work.
You know that at this moment, you couldn’t possibly be anywhere else in the world. It’s like that destiny thingy. Have to be there doing that. Its making me happy isn’t all that difficult I see. I think all I need now is a hug, but it’s ok if I miss out on that too, just in case it isn’t in the ‘perfect’ menu.
Saleha’s here and she tells me I’m done for the day. Happiness. The team’s together again. Contentment.
