\nYeh Khula Aasmaan revolves around Avinash, who is just one of the many young students of today\u2019s generation expected to survive in the competitive bubble in which they exist. Such a competitive academic<\/div>\n
\nscenario has not only led to impractical expectations from students, but also extreme stress and pressure to live up to the same. Predictably, with every passing year, the number of unfortunate demises has increased surrounding the exams period.<\/p>\n

Hoping to address this issue through her endeavor Yeh Khula Aasmaan, director Gitanjali Sinha says, \u201cThe extreme pressure on today\u2019s youth to excel in academics is absolutely unfair. Academic performance has
\nbecome the only benchmark against which they are judged. Failure to live up to these expectations can leave them de-motivated and shatter their confidence. Such intense pressure at this young age can affect the rest of their life. As a responsible parent myself, I make sure that I support my child during this complicated phase instead of building up the pressure. This was one of the primary reasons I decided to make Yeh Khula Aasmaan.\u201d<\/div>\n

\nHaving witnessed incidents of this sensitive nature closely in her professional career, popular Psychiatrist and Psychotherapist, Dr. Jyoti Sangle has been an avid supporter of the stress-free children cause. She does not hesitate in underlining the role of prolonged stress and high pressure in wreaking havoc on children. She lauds Gitanjali Sinha\u2019s cinematic attempt in the form of \u2018Yeh Khula Aasmaan\u2019 to focus on the need of a supportive family for the success of a child. Dr. Sangle avers, \u201cEach child has a unique blueprint, which needs to be tapped by parents and teachers. The pressure on children to perform conforming to the standards set by others creates tremendous pressure on their tender minds. It reduces their frustration tolerance and drives them to impose unreasonable expectations on themselves. Finally, many children crumble under pressure leading to the high incidence and prevalence of anxiety. The film shows how parental support and positive emotions can help the child to overcome the vulnerability to disappointments and restore its lost confidence to successfully combat challenges in life.\u201d<\/p>\n

Veteran actor Raghubir Yadav, playing the role of \u2018Dadu\u2019, says, \u201cI am extremely proud to be associated with Yeh Khula Aasmaan considering it enlightens such an important issue existing among today\u2019s youth. Academics alone don\u2019t define the future of a child. I believe that the recipe for success is to keep trying your best, success will just follow.\u201d<\/p>\n

Yashpal Sharma, playing the role of the NRI fathers adds in, \u201cOne of the reasons for which I agreed to be a part of Yeh Khula Aasmaan was to address this issue of academic stress. I have seen the pressure my children go through to keep up with their peers. Competition is great, as long as it\u2019s in moderation. This is the same advice I gave my children before the cut-throat competitive spirit caught on them. Like me, all parents need to take up responsibility.\u201d<\/p>\n

Lastly, an IITian and MBA from London Business School, producer Hemendra Aran says, \u201cWhile the academic excellence does help in life, long term success is less about academic excellence and more about building one\u2019s own personality, internal strength and emotional intelligence. Yeh Khula Aasmaan subtly emphasizes upon the importance of these aspects.\u201d <\/p>\n
