My association with this festival has been for a while and I have travelled with the festival for sometime too and experienced the budding film makers in cities like Patna, Varanasi, Dehradun who get inspired and some have also become a part of the industry today. It is not just a platform but an opportunity….

Most film festivals take place in metropolitan areas… Jagran Film Festival goes on a long ride through 16 cities..giving people a chnace to taste cinema

JFF has done a great job in screening a rich content not only a must watch for the film enthusiast but also students to learn from it

The idea of entertainment is broader as the B towns are sometime bereft of this culture

Because of a festival like this, in times to come, we will witness film makers emerge from small towns and create a revolution in the Indian Cinema industry….

This festival alone is a symbol of a revolution to come in the near future that will not only change markets and the cinema’s but also the perception of its audience to an acceptance of meaningful cinema.

Everybody is an awaam at a film fest and that’s one of the any things I love about it. Everybody is here because of their common love for cinema.

Film festivals not only entertain but also enlighten the public

The content that runs in JFF is not only outstanding but a great initiative of creating a market for the films that are not under a big banner but a brilliant work in cinema.

This is a treat for cinema lovers and cinema students

For me Film Festivals are the places of learning more about viewing films and reading about it and meeting people who actually made it

A film festival has to embrace the common people and make him/her part of the process

It’s very exciting that a festival is going to places that it ordinarily wouldn’t. It is such a great initiative as the cinema is such a force in people’s life that they would not have seen such amazing films screened in the festival otherwise

Festivals not only bring film lovers together but also connect industry wallahs with the commoners. The exchange of ideas that takes place during interactive sessions is something that benefits both parties

JFF is a great initiative where in times like today where content is the king and only ruler to be new big names of the industry tomorrow and these sort of films been screened under the banner of JFF in various towns.

An event such as this, trains the audience in understanding nuances, which they are generally alien to.

The festival that goes through 16 cities…meets a lot of people along the journey

It’s because of JFF that we can get the view beyond the juggernauts of commercial cinema. A world lies out there which showcases the nuts and bolts of filmmaking.

A festival prepares the market, the audience and the talent of tomorrow.

The best part about JFF is that it is a festival that is actually trying to reach out to the audience directly and educating them with the different forms of cinema from across the globe..

It is a brilliant idea of making cinema accessible & for people to watch a different kind of cinema than they do at the theaters every now and then.
