Author: Sam Rupani (rupanisp) from Houston, Texas



Beautiful acting and directing. Very well written script.

One woman and three men.

Human Relationship at its best.

One woman can change everything wrong in life...

Restaurant ( Food ) is the most important thing beside woman.

It is better to feel than to think and be creative...

Thanks and Regards.
