torch.load throws error while loading .t7 file

[Yash Kant]

Hi, I am trying to run this code-base (https://github.com/Cloud-CV/visual-chatbot) and I am unable to debug the following error I get on this line (https://github.com/Cloud-CV/visual-chatbot/blob/master/evaluate.lua#L60): 

>> python worker.py

$ Error: cannot open <models/hre-qih-g-new.t7> in mode r  at /tmp/luarocks_torch-scm-1-5587/torch7/lib/TH/THDiskFile.c:673

Can anyone please help me understand what is going wrong? I have the <models/hre-qih-g-new.t7> file present in the required folder. Thank you.
