    - nsaidi, CNN iReport producer

    Hello everyone!

    My name is Pranav Damle. I live in the city of Mumbai which was attacked by the terrorists last year. i had previously written a report on my experience on 26/11/2008 last year.

    This year 26/11/2009 , its been exactly one year. I wanted to make a tribute video and give a message to anyone and everyone in the world that if we all are united and if we spread love amongst us we can easily kill Terrorism.....

    I came across a free hug video by Jaun Mann on internet and i decided to use that concept to make a video...

    No one was willing to help me at first. i had only a handycam but nobody to be my cameraman.Finally on 26/11/2009 my friend agreed to volunteer..

    I shot the footage at Cafe Leopold, Taj Mahal Hotel and also near Gateway of India. All these places were attacket by the Terrorists on 26/11/2008.

    I came home and uploaded the videos on my laptop and edited them on Widows Movie Maker to prepare this small video of 4 minutes.

    Last year i was atthe south gate of Taj Mahal Hotel.I have already written an ireport of the same before..

    After making the video. I went to various news channels in India and asked them if they could show my video..But no one here cares about the common man.They are intrested only in showing videos made by Bollywood Stars and famous people..

    So i decided to write my story here.

    If you like my video.

    I would love it if it is showed across the world.

    I wish we ll unite to fight Terrorism Globally!!!

    Or one day this devil named Terrorism will eat us RAW!!!!!!

    Regards,

    Pranav Damle
