Everyday life is going on in the first scene, some people are reading newspapers,  some are sleeping,  some are busy doing their work relentlessly, some people are going to their daily jobs. On a busy road with traffic, there are two boys, one in a green t-shirt named Soham and the other in a red one named Mayur.

By looking at them, one can easily make out that there are not from a well to do family and are asking for pennies at every red light in the traffic from people passing by in their vehicles.

As we can see that Mayur is quite lucky and smart out of both the boys and gets money much easier than Soham. Seeing this, Soham feels a bit sad and demotivated as he is unable to get a single penny.  This continues for about two or three times. He was hungry but unfortunately did not have money to buy anything.  After sometime,  again the traffic turned red, giving him a ray of hope about collecting some money instead. So he smiled, tightened his back, and with a joyous smile on his face holding his head high, he went near the car but again he failed as Mayur was clever enough to get to them before the other boy.

Saddened, he went back to the pavement, feeling hungry, no money in pocket, and gradually he saw that Mayur went to the shop to buy a burger from a shop. He could do nothing but just sit back and watch. Suddenly, the boy in the red t-shirt came towards him and Soham saw that he has bought an extra burger for him. It is an absolute example of sharing and care.

If you see a person who has nothing and if you are capable of providing at least something,  then you must do it because the smile you receive from them is truly a very merry feeling. Each person must and try to help anyone in need with whatever we have. We were born in this world to spread love and care for each other.

The whole plot revolves around sharing whatever you have. Mayur also begs for money alongside Soham at traffic lights, still, he decided to split up his money in order to buy food for his friend. He cares about Soham and belives that showing people care and love is more important than greed or any material things.

We could also see that opportunity comes to everyone,  it’s just who grabs it first. Here both have got the opportunity at the same time but the opportunity comes in the bag of those who wish to pertain.

“Hate is louder than Love,     But Love always wins in the end.”  Pride: a feeling or deep pleasure or satisfaction derived from one’s own achievements, the achievements of those with whom one is closely associated, or from qualities or possessions that are widely admired.   The month of June, also known as the PRIDE MONTH globally has its own important significance in history which marks the revolution of the meaning of Love and Life.
