Akira Sharma is your average Jane from Jodhpur. Early in life she sees an atrocity committed on a neighbour and learns to defend herself. And, a spitfire is born.

Directed by Professor Sunil Ariyaratne, 'Gautama Buddha Matha' is a cinematic portrayal inspired by the life of Mahapajapati Gotami, the revered queen and one of the earliest followers of the Buddha.

Crime Patrol attempts to bring stories of crime happening all around the country. Crimes that tell us that we need to be careful, we need to be watchful. Crimes that tell us lives could have been saved. Every crime we hear of, either warns us to be careful or scares us, it could happen to us. Every crime ignites a feeling, It should not have happened. Would knowing the Why? behind a crime, help in stopping a crime from happening? I don't like the way he looks at me, I don't like the way he/she is behaving, I think he/she is out of his/her mind, I think he/she has gone crazy. That gaze, that quirky smile, that persistent stare which unnerves. It is difficult to understand the intentions but the hints are there. In a house a husband and wife argue, fight. A vessel comes flying, a glass breaks. Husband is angry and the wife is upset. That hatred, that ego. The distance that keeps growing. It is difficult to comprehend the damage, but the cracks are there. Feelings expressions.
