Mumbai: Actor Prabhas, known for his blockbuster hit Kalki 2898 AD, has expanded his creative horizons by launching 'The Script Craft,' a platform aimed at empowering and promoting writers. This initiative allows aspiring storytellers to showcase their ideas and gain recognition.
'The Script Craft' offers writers a chance to share their story ideas through 250-word synopses. These submissions are then rated by the audience, with the highest-rated stories gaining visibility. The platform prioritises ratings over comments, creating a positive and supportive environment that helps writers build confidence.
