On November 24, 2022, MOHAN Foundation-Delhi NCR in association with National Organ & Tissue Transplant Organization (NOTTO) organized a special screening of movie “Aye Zindagi” at      PVR Promenade, Vasant Kunj, New Delhi. The main aim of this event was to spread a strong message about the need for and importance of organ donation to a larger audience.

 

“Aye Zindagi”, a Hindi-language film, is based on the incredible true story of Ms. Lalitha Raghuram, Country Director, MOHAN Foundation, played by veteran south actress and 3-time National Film Award winner Revathy Menon in the lead role. The film received 4 star rating from Times of India which is directed by Dr Anirban Bose (Senior Nephrologist at the University of Rochester Medical Center and Advisor & President - MOHAN USA).

• It is really an inspirational movie. Everyone must watch.
• A lovely message on organ donation through a movie converting one’s pain into the joy of giving selflessly for a better and bigger cause, converting death into life. More movies on this kind of heart-tugging story should be made.
• A very emotional film based on a true story that encourages you to donate organs in order to save lives.
• I feel the message of the movie is very strong. I hope the movie gets more success.
