Things to add to improve script

- Some lines for parents like – ‘we need to celebrate! Not everyday you have one daughter moving to … and one the future of dance!’ ‘I’m taking the night off work’ ‘we are so proud of you’ ‘what a year ahead’

- country’shots of envelope Komal checking mail and bills- reading letter

- Sequence of her getting in trouble at ‘work’
