What could be a more heartwarming visual than a young boy, wearing a red cape, playing the guitar in a
fantasy concert in his room? All of the above, topped with a cat! 
It is a delightful video which showcases the boy’s passion for music ever since he was a child. The lyrics
complement his dreams and the hope of making it big some day, along with seeing music as salvation. He paints
a picture of his future rockstar-self and puts it on the wall behind his bed, over the posters of
superheroes. The title is apt too, as we see the boy’s obsession with primarily two beings, his cat and his
guitar. 
The continuous juxtaposition of his past, present, and future solely engrossed in one pursuit in this endearing narrative marked by its sophisticated visuals, are perhaps
a way of foretelling that his commitment will bring his dreams to fruition.

The music video is marked by soulful vocals, with an equally melodious score. The song takes you into a world of its own, with an important message forming its backbone. We are introduced to a household marked by domestic conflict and the resultant effect it has on the child in the family. The narrative also emphasizes the hold of past trauma and the immensely powerful role it can play in the present. While the final result offers a relevant comment on the issue it tackles, the visual narrative does not meet the vocal and musical aspect of it midway, ensuring that the latter covers a longer distance. It would be interesting to see more projects by the team in which both aspects work in unison and are at par with one another.

First dates or romantic dinners are marked by nervous excitement, generous amounts of time spent in grooming oneself, and long preparations of something special for the person of affection. The protagonist, an enthusiastic, cheery man, seems to be a master in these categories, but especially when it comes to the culinary aspect of it all. As he moves from one corner of his kitchen to another, his endeavor of baking a scrumptious cake is allowed portrayal against soft, uplifting vocals. 

With his best apron on and tasteful music in the background, he begins the elaborate process. As fine wine and cutlery are brought out, a table for two is set up in his courtyard where a live band plays and adds an extra verve to the evening. With everything in place, he waits by the door, but will his love and efforts turn out to be fruitful?
