Word IS FLAT

A majority of the so called creative stuff have their origin in jumbled words or sentences. What I meant was when you have something famous, a quote or a saying for example you play with the words and get ideas. The famous movie “Thank you for smoking” was, I believe, inspired by wall posts which read “Thank you for not smoking”. Then one guy reading this thought what it would be like if “not” was not present in the sentence. Then came the idea that we could make a movie in which a situation is created where in it is good for smoking (at a particular situation). Then the scenario was created and everything else followed.

I have one more example regarding this. There is a famous video clip on youtube called “The Singhsons”. Which I believe was again originated because someone thought of the word Singhsons while playing with Simpsons. So then they thought how would it be to have an entire Singh family along the lines of Simpsons. That is when the video clip was born.

Famous Bollywood Film Actor Akshay Kumar talked about his inspiration for SINGH IS KING. He saw it written on the back of a truck. Then he thought how about we make a movie out of this; then there it was the disaster.

I have a thought in mind in this direction. Bribe and Prejubice. The dyslexic Girl who fights against corruption. She couldn’t read Bride and Bride.
