Meet Saad, a young spirit who wants to go beyond the horizon of an average achiever and add meaning to his life. Saad is a UKG student with a heart for studies, always excels in English. When most kids of his age could not last a minute in silence or being alone, one can see Saad allowing his mind to wander.
He usually finds a spot on a bench at Sunrise Public School, a silent observer in the noisy playground. He has a world inside him, one filled with stories and colours.
At this young age, he has a place reserved for his nation; he aspires to become an army officer. His heart, pure and innocent, yearns to see the Indian tri-colour fluttering proudly against the sky.
With innocent eyes and tranquil air,
He sits near his father without care.
Saad finds tranquillity in the presence of his father, the respected Imaam of the local mosque. His father is not just a parent to him but his secret keeper and best friend. Their evenings are spent reciting the melodic verses of the Quran.
His Face, a bright beam,
hold talents that dances in hues of green.
For Saad, life is not confined to the pages of textbooks. His school offers a vibrant world of extracurricular activities, and Saad finds himself drawn to some of them. Studying is not a burden to him; he passionately does that.
The dream of becoming an army officer is not just an ambition; it is a promise. A promise to his nation, a promise to his faith, and above all, a promise to himself. His promise fills him with determination that shines through the shyness in his eyes. He finds Sunrise Public School an opportunity to fulfil his dreams.
