Dia Mirza Unveils Musical Short Film 'B for Braille'




“It's time we strongly address the lack of awareness that exists, not only promote the beautiful art of reading but help elevate literacy levels. I am extremely proud to be associated with the cause and spread the message of Braille literacy to every part of India,” she added.

Upasana Makati, founder and publisher, White Print, said that the ratio of visually impaired and the literate visually impaired is skewed.

“There is an urgent need to educate and empower, to reach out to smaller towns and villages and generate awareness regarding the Braille script.

"Beautiful music, powerful lyrics and some emotional visuals captured in the film can be the best medium to spread the word. 'B for Braille' is our way of taking a step towards making a difference," said Makati.
