We seem to have reached the end of the tunnel as the lockdown on trains and theatres are lifted and vaccination drives are initiated across the country. With the aim to raise hope, Parmanu fame director Abhishek Sharma has produced a music video titled When it's all over.

"I used references from Michael Jackson's hit song Leave me alone. I loved how stop motion and animation was used in the original video," starts off Sharma, adding, "Ramzing [creator] wrote about the depression last year. The thought that spoke to me - what would I do when it's all over? [We have been] taking everything for granted. This is a wake-up call [to help realise] that our life and lifestyle is precious; showcased with the clever use of humour. I got new-age directors Aniruddha Khanwilkar and Ritesh Varma to helm it while I produced."

Sharma hopes the video champions the vaccination drive. "There is a touch of hope to the number. Plus the spirit of the song keeps it free willed," he says while informing that he had a special screening for BMC officials.
