The 22 minute film depicted children playing in the only\navailable open and level space in Shimla &#8211; the Ridge. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Delivering a Guru Talk at Shoolini University, he said there was an urgent need to provide open spaces in parks and playgrounds to give children an alternate creative activity to keep them away from mobiles and nefarious activities at this tender age. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>He related the Ridge to the famous Shivaji Park in Mumbai.\nThe Ridge witnesses and hosts all kinds of political, religious and social\nactivities except allowing kids to play for few hours at least even on Sundays.\n<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>He said the documentary made an impact with the government\nwhich began opening up parks and other spaces for the children to play. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>He said he evolved a comprehensive strategy to sensitise the\ngovernment as the film alone could not have made the impact. He started a\nsocial media campaign and also spread his word through the mainstream media. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>He went nostalgic about his experience of playing cricket\nwith a ball made with socks. He said &#8220;if we do not provide playgrounds and\nopen spaces to the children, they will only play on mobile inside the room. If\nyou want to hear chirping of birds, you have to go outside&#8221;. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Vivek Mohan told students to be patient in life as nothing\ncan be achieved overnight. He further added, &#8220;Whether you are writer,\npainter or singer or in whatever profession, you have to be sensitive to the\nsociety.
