Episode 1

Will this beautiful environment end up strangled, entangled in the wires of technology and software?

What will happen to the coming generations? Will they protect this beautiful nature?

Or will they take any responsibility?

Will this beautiful world hold any importance in their eyes?

Will they wake up in the morning, stand in the cool breeze, and stroll through the gardens?

When it rains, will they take an umbrella and walk in that weather?

Will they be able to endure the summer heat, or on cold nights, will they ever light a fire and warm their hands?

Will they ever feel wonder looking at the mesmerizing artworks of this beautiful world?

I don’t think so. What will become of humans in the coming time can be guessed just by looking at today’s fast-moving human system.

It becomes clear—yes, it becomes clear—

that in the future, there will be no human left who values this beautiful nature.

There will be no one in the world who notices the flying birds, because their heads will always be bowed in slavery.

And they will be happy in that slavery.

There will be no one who truly feels the changing seasons,

because at that time, they will be lost in the fascination of a colorful, artificial world.

There will be no one who takes out time for others,

because in that artificial world, only those who live for themselves will survive.

Yes, all the achievements of humanity will crumble.

There will be no person who can resist putting others down.

People will walk around with arrogance, showing off, belittling others,

because they will own very expensive, priceless things.

In that artificial world, the one who falls behind in this era of technology will become very lonely, suppressed, and crushed.

He will be treated like an animal.

For him, success in the technological age will become the sole purpose of life; otherwise,

he will be crushed like an insect.

Kerala—where people were devastated by floods. The lives of thousands and lakhs of people were, as if, finished.

People had lost their homes, their belongings, and their relatives.

They had become hopeless, despairing, and helpless, as if there was no hope left to live.

The flood-affected people were now standing on their rooftops, looking toward the sky, waiting for a helicopter to come and bring food for them.

At an annual function party

Sahil: How are you, friend? Everything okay?

Aarib: Yes, everything’s fine. Tell me, how are you?

Sahil: Everything’s great, but…

Aarib: But?

Sahil: Friend Aarib, we’re working on a project.

Aarib: Which project, friend?

Sahil: The Flyboard project—a project so that in the coming future, humans can fly in the air.

Aarib: But what’s the benefit? We already have airplanes, helicopters—humans are already flying with their help.

Sahil: No, friend, we’re making a machine that will save people from natural disasters. When people need it, this machine will save them—a machine that can be worn like clothing.

Aarib: What do you mean?

Sahil: I mean, both of us are working together on this project.

Aarib: No, no, Sahil, building such a machine will take a lot of time. Maybe engineers aren’t ready for such high-level technology yet.

Sahil: But we will make this project happen.

Aarib: No, Sahil, my project is something else. I can’t join you right now.

Sahil: Okay, friend, as you wish.

But when you’re needed, will you help?

Aarib: Yes, of course.
