Mahe: A grand gala event was held at Mahe Chalakkara Excel Public School to celebrate the 25th day of the movie “Monica Oru AI Story.” The event was a resounding success, highlighting the community’s enthusiastic support and the movie’s positive impact. The celebration featured a vibrant atmosphere filled with joy and appreciation.
In his inaugural speech, Speaker A.N. Shamseer hailed the movie “Monica Oru AI Story” as the beginning of a radical change in Indian cinema. He emphasized the film’s significant impact on society and the need for teachers to go beyond traditional teaching roles to become second parents who understand children’s psychology.
In his speech, speaker Shamseer remarked, “In a society that has lost love, teachers must not only teach lessons but also become second parents, understanding the psychology of children. The government is considering how to transform the role of teachers. ‘Monica Oru AI Story’ points to the significant changes of tomorrow in the Indian film industry. The speaker congratulated the entire team for making this movie.
Despite inclement weather preventing their physical attendance, opposition leader V.D. Satheesan and Norka Roots Director J.K. Menon conveyed their congratulations through a video message.

Mukundan commented on the role of AI in literature, saying, “AI cannot dream, love, or feel, but it can create miracles in health, education, and science. We need not fear AI; it has already entered literary fields.”
