A Script Full of Possibilities | Saiwyn Quadras | TEDxAllianceUniversity

"Overriding a series of challenges in his childhood, Saiwyn Quadras [an Indian-Bollywood scriptwriter who has scripted biopics such as Mary Kom (2014) and Neerja (2016)] shares his life story and its bumpy rides. His passion for storytelling made him push the boundaries of imagination. It’s Mary Kom’s story about the bronze medal at the London Olympics 2012 that bagged him three producers, while he failed to find a single producer in the previous year for the same story. That was how his journey to fame and success began. For Saiwyn, experiencing the magic of impacting the audience was profoundly moving and cathartic, given the roller coaster of emotions his life journey has taken him through. Saiwyn Quadras is an Indian screenwriter, who has written the biopics such as 'Mary Kom' and 'Neerja'. He was also the writer of 'Parmanu: The Story of Pokhran'. His upcoming film as a writer is 'Maidaan' starring Ajay Devgn. He has been professionally writing for the last 15 years and is involved in writing for multiple films and web projects.
