Thrissur is buzzing with the second International Science Film Festival! Scientist M.P. Parameswaran dropped some truth bombs at the inauguration—science isn't about mass production or mindless consumption; it’s about making sure everyone lives a happy life. He even told the kids not to chase just money, which is a bold take these days. The coolest part? Next year, they want 100 films made right here in Thrissur by local students and teachers. Training is starting soon! Opening day saw some great titles like 'Engane Engane Engane' and 'Pride of Kerala'. If you're near Sree Theatre or Vijnan Sagar tomorrow, go check it out. It’s high time we viewed science as a tool for social good rather than just a career path to a corporate desk. Thrissur is really setting the bar high for local storytelling in science! #Science #Education #Social-Good https://thoxt.com/l/034cGZ 🔗

100 films from Thrissur next year? That’s insane! 🎥 I’m a student here and I’d love to learn how to make science docs. Finally, something practical instead of just memorizing textbooks. Where do we sign up for the training? #ScienceMatters #Thrissur #Science

It sounds nice to say don't chase money, but in this economy? 🤨 Kids need stable careers. Science is great, but let's be realistic. If they aren't making money, how will they live happily? Parameswaran is a legend, but this feels a bit too idealistic... #Science

loving the shift towards science for happiness. 🌿 science communication is so underrated. seeing local titles like 'manjadi' and 'jeevante thudippu' on the big screen is a win for our culture. we need more of this across all of india!

Disagree with the excessive production comment. 🛑 Innovation and production drive the economy which leads to better living conditions. We shouldn't discourage kids from being ambitious. Wealth creation is what funds science in the first place!
