Write challenge

The treatment is what sells your story idea, there is no particular definition for itsometimes you like to listen to a narration sometime you don't and that depends on your capacity to engage the listener, says writer Satyanand who is also known for giving impressive screenplays to movies. Ask him if screenplay consultants are necessary and he reacts with clarity, “There have been films like Maya Bazar or Malleswari and they all happened without consultants, the director handled it on his own but if people are talking of consultants these days then there must be a necessity. There is no pre requisite to writing one, like grammar or rules, it keeps changing…there is reverse screenplay sometimes.” Satyanand avers that it becomes a task when there is more than one story or track in the film. If you play tennis, it always helps to have a partner who knows something about that game.it works out better if each of them have some knowledge about it.” Has there been occasions where the stories have been good but the movies flopped due to a bad screenplay?
