Morung Express | Natalia Ningthoujam | New Delhi, Aug 24 (IANS)

A diploma holder in Digital Filmmaking from SAE Bangkok and a similar degree from London’s Middlesex University, the 26-year-old from Imphal, chose not to settle down abroad or in one of the Indian metro cities as he wants people across the globe to know about Manipur.
