Hey everyone, I'm Huneyn. I am a 25-year-old first-time creator. I have been working on some projects (Eight and counting), and you know it's quite ridiculous how ideas just come to you, and afterwards your eyes widen, realizing what you wrote.
So, just like that, I wrote a 3-season-long epic about angels, a love story between an AI and a human teen, a screenplay about a schizoprenic serial killer. Mind you, I didn't know what I was doing. The AI story is something that I wrote in 2019, and the same goes for the epic about angels. I just had an idea that had been rotting in my head for so long, nudging me to get it out there in any shape or form, so I wrote it. :))
The screenplay about the serial killer was written recently tho after I rewatched Glass, the movie. So, I had some questions. The questions are:
1- Are people still excited by the thought of an AI falling in love with a human in 2019?
2- How do people cope with questions of religion and love?
It's quite strange. But I've had discussions about my projects with people, some people who happen to think deeply about things. I know that the AI love story might seem like it's genuinely boring since it has been talked about in so many shows, movies, etc. But I explored a corporate conspiracy through it, it might seem like an AI love story, but its mostly about grief, and guilt. But anyways, what do you guys think ? :
Hey Huneyn, welcome!
Honestly, the ideas themselves are less important than the perspective you bring to them. AI-human love, religion, even psychological killers—these have all been explored before, but what makes them feel fresh is the emotional core and how personally you approach them.
For example, an AI love story isn’t really about “AI” anymore it’s about connection, loneliness, identity, and what it means to be human. If your version is rooted in grief and guilt, that already gives it a stronger, more unique angle.
Same with religion and love—people don’t necessarily look for answers, they connect more with characters who are struggling with those questions in an honest way.
If anything, I’d say don’t worry about whether the idea is “overdone.” Focus on:
– what your story is really about beneath the concept
– what emotional experience you want the audience to feel
That’s what makes it stand out.
Curious—which one of your projects feels the most personal to you right now?
Abhijeet Aade Hey, thanks for commenting! I think the angel story? It's the most personal one to me. But, I don't know, people say I talk about things through my works. They say I ask questions through my work, questions that shouldn't be asked? People said that these questions made them somewhat uncomfortable. But I guess that's what it means to make art, and express yourself, right? to express things that can't be expressed through words, or ordinary interactions.
But yeah, it's a bit strange, but the more I think about my stories, the more I'm in shock at what I wrote. Because it's clearly implying something, something I wasn't writing consciously. Like the AI love story I wrote, I was thinking about it. As it turns out, it's not just an AI love story. It's about grief and love through the lens of an AI. It's that AI discovering how messy humans are, and how messy we are when we love someone, and I think this project is going to talk to people, like really talk to them about their own relationships, and how messy they've been in their relationships.
Huneyn Ja'afri Hey, I actually think that’s a strength.
The stories that stay with people are often the ones that make them a little uncomfortable or force them to think differently. If your work is asking questions people aren’t used to confronting, it usually means there’s something honest and personal in it.
The angel story sounds like it has that kind of depth. I’d say lean into that rather than pull back from it.
Curious though what kind of questions are you exploring through it?
Abhijeet Aade Hey, yeah I wasn't conciously writing what I was doing. But I was in a bad mental space, and I just expressed it all out in that story. The story starts off with a lovely romance moment between Lucifer, and another angel, it was all before his banishment. Afterwards, the story spirals down a rabbit hole to a very compex, and complicated rejection of the hierarchy all fueled by love. It's love that fuels a huge rebellion in heaven. The aftermaths of that rebellion is that heaven lays broken, and one winged. Imagine if Marquis de Sade wrote the rebellion of lucifer, and thats basically what happens. But the thing is that the more I or anyone reads it, the more philosophical concepts they discover. It's surprising to me as its creator, because I wasn't aware of what I was writing.
Huneyn Ja'afri That’s actually really powerful.
Sometimes the most honest work comes from a place where you’re not consciously controlling it, but just letting it come through. The fact that you’re discovering layers in it now says a lot about how personal and instinctive the writing was.
The idea of love driving something as destructive as rebellion is especially interesting it adds a tragic weight to it rather than just making it ideological.
It sounds like there’s a lot to unpack in that world. Have you thought about how you’d want the audience to emotionally experience it more as a tragedy, or something more philosophical and reflective?

Abhijeet Aade Yes I have, it shows the deep and tragic nature of the perceived "antagonist" who just appears as an antagonist. But if people see his reason, they won't really side with him as an antagonist. I don't even consider him an antagonist. He's more of a study for me and for others to understand see that the monsters out there, weren't really born as monsters they were made. And their makers might just fit the right description of what a monster truly is. But in this story, the creator of that monster is an innocent pretty face. Just an expression of the harsh reality we live in.
Huneyn Ja'afri That’s a really compelling perspective.
I like that you’re not treating him as a traditional antagonist, but more as a reflection of how circumstances shape people. It adds a layer of moral complexity where the audience is forced to question their own judgments rather than just choosing sides.
The idea that the “creator” of the monster appears innocent is especially powerful it mirrors real life in a way that can be unsettling.
Feels like the story leans more into empathy and understanding than conflict alone, which can make it even more impactful.
Curious do you see the audience ultimately sympathizing with him, or remaining conflicted about him by the end?
Abhijeet Aade To be honest with you, I never wrote him or any other character in this story with any sort of conscious planning or thinking about what I wanna do; I felt free to create based on what I felt. But I usually just heard that Lucifer is a bad guy, everyone thinks he's a bad guy, and that's the only thought that I consciously remember before I wrote the show. Afterwards, everything that happened was like clockwork, one question got answered, and then it made me question another, and another. So, after following these chains of questions, I just didn't realize when I created a 3-season epic. I didn't know that I wrote theological philosophy. But I keep things open for everyone to interpret as they wish. I personally don't offer any explanation in the show as to why any character did what they did. It's open for interpretation. I really do trust my audience to think for themselves, because I know I gave them two sides of the same coin. It's their own ideology and philosophy that decides if they get heads or tails.
Huneyn, writing a 3-season epic by accident is the most 'screenwriter' thing I’ve ever heard, most of us can’t even finish a grocery list without questioning our life choices! Your 'study' of Lucifer sounds like exactly the kind of complex world-building that builds a massive fanbase.
I’d love to help you build a Patreon or Ko-fi 'Home Base' to monetize these 8 projects while you focus on the philosophy. I work on a 'success-first' basis: I don't charge for my time, only a small budget for the digital tools we need.
When your epic thrives, I thrive. Let’s give your audience a place to explore those two sides of the coin!
