I am a Independent Film Maker : Lijo Jose Pellissery .

For me cinema is not a money making machinery but a medium to express my vision . so from today onwards

 I am a Independent film maker. 

I will use all the money I raise from cinema to fuel better cinema and nothing else . I will screen my cinema anywhere I feel is right because I am the creator of it . 

We are in the middle of a pandemic -a war-jobless people - identity crisis- poverty and  religious unrest.people are walking a 1000 miles just to reach home .Artists are dying out of depression . 

so …These are times to create great art just to inspire people to feel alive. Just to give them hope in some form to stay alive .

Don't ask us to stop working 

Don't ask us  to stop creating 

Don't question our integrity 

Don't question our self respect 

 You will terribly loose 

because we are Artists
