Here are the reviews as per the prizes. Though, the reviews were meant just for the winners but we just couldn't help to give reviews to the finalists as well because for us all the finalists were equally competitive and amazing in their own way.

So here we go:

Judge- 1

The_Sarcastic_Girl_

Well, the contest was totally unplanned. It's just one day before the contest our favorite admin asked us to give an idea because she wanted to keep a contest on Holi festive. And she had literally ordered me to give her idea because I'm her idea shop.

But as a Muslim, I barely have any idea about Holi festive. Okay, in short after discussing about one hour and so.... we are here with this idea. Well, we're amazing, aren't we?

But I didn't thought in this less time, we will get such amazing pieces of work. Trust me it was one of the hardest judging contest for me till now. I loved each and every entry. The stories and poems were absolutely amazing and beautiful. No doubt, you guys are amazing writers to give us such pieces. But as it's a contest, some of you lose and some of you'll win. So, don't get demotivate and work harder.

I love the poem you have written. I'm not big fan of poems, because I don't understand them much but your was too good! I enjoyed reading this poem, it was refreshing and totally lovely. But it lacked the balance. It would be little bit better if you could have add pain or sadness in the poem. Other than that it was a poem which warms up our heart with adoration. A lovely attempt.

An amazing story with beautiful narration. No doubt, the story was good. Even the uses of vocabulary made the story read worthy.
I absolutely adored how you have molded the story! Totally amazing!

Very cute story. In the first para, you have describe the feeling of his mother which actually made aww! It's was amazing story. A lovely attempt.

Now coming to winners :

What I loved your in story was the smartness. You have moulded the prompt into a beautiful story without adding supernatural drama in it. But technically you have used the prompt very smartly in your story, when most people avoided writing it. That's what also make it stand out. And also give a beautiful insight of newly wed Isha's life. Technically we know what vermilion means to married women but when the married woman is a colour blind then what's happens? So, yeah I loved the whole concept.

Absolutely amazing story! It had touched my heart. I can't say how simply beautiful it was! You have moulded the story very perfectly. And it has realistic touch like as a kids sometimes we behave wrongly with other kids. Totally lovely.

Godisgracious0102 🎊🎉

A very cute story. I never thought anyone can write this story like! A start of father and daughter relationship. Ah! Michel, well I could imagine adoration and love in his eyes for that child. So, yeah I have absolutely loved it.

Judge 2:-

As my fellow judge said that it was me who wanted to keep a contest, well yes, and it all started with a newspaper. Yup, while reading newspaper, I read through a contest which was basically a selfie contest and top 10 winners will be getting free passes to a grand pool holi party.

So, that's why I thought to why not to hold a SHORT contest as we had a very little time in our hand to organize it. And that's when our BSC Tinker gave a direction to that small idea.

So, it was The_Sarcastic_Girl_ who gave the idea of colorblind and I gave the idea of love. And that's how the birth of 'Color Brave' took place.

Without wasting any more time, lemme start with the winners first,

sonali112 🎊🎉

Full on!! Your shot is so compelling. There is so much feelings in your shot.

Love the way how the start took place. What follows is heartwarming approach of Ajay, realistic approach of Isha, narrow ways of her mother-in- law and hilarious approach of Monu which altogether constructed your story in a fantastic and joyful way.

You really gave your best in the prompt which everyone refused to chose. Great work!

Girl, your shot is highly entertaining filled with memorable moments. It's a perfect blend of emotions and reality. There's no doubt it is highly inspiring, empowering, charming and down right a joy to read.

The way the story twisted at the end by making the male protagonist an Aviator just left me in awe and tbh that was really inspiring.

<><><><><><>

Godisgracious0102 🎊🎉

Okay, wow! I have to give it to you! The way you kickstart your story with a one liner and then blended it completely with the relevance of the story was just so superb.

You gave your characters very different personalities and traits which I loved the most.

Must say, one among the master pieces.

Coming to my Favourite Finalists:-

VELLIGal

You definitely have something charming about your writing which had me and the other judge as well, attracted towards your shot in the one read itself.

Your grip on writing is something unique and attractive. I really enjoyed your shot! It is a worth a read and re-read as well.

Oh girl, what do I say about you. I'm just spellbound by your amazing poetry. The use of innovative wordings added stars to your poem. There was nothing sort of awkward transitions and everything fitted just so well in its place which had me amazed.

Creativity was dripping throughout the poem and let's just say, you banged my heart.

~~~~~~~~~~

SHADOWOFMOON_

What a ride. Deep. The words used in your shot is just so creative which deserves every bit of appreciation.

Inspiring is what I would call your shot. The protagonists were two opposite worlds clashed to fill colors in each other worlds. The story was so deep and powerful that it really have my heart.

~~~~~~~~~~
