A filmmaker and a famous artist, while appreciating the holding of this festival, said that the event would provide them with an opportunity to explore the works and perspectives of other filmmakers besides building an audience for the work of filmmakers.
“It will also develop the skill of film-making using minimal efficient resources. It will work to the advantage of identifying young and fresh talent in the film-making and music industry in Jammu & Kashmir. The event will also centre-stage the filmmaking process and incentivize local talent to pursue a career in filmmaking and world of music as well,” he said.
Lieutenant Governor, Manoj Sinha, at the launch of the Union Territory’s Film Policy, had said ‘It has been worked out to facilitate overall growth of film industry in the region including setting up of a film development council and revival of closed cinema halls’.
The policy, launched at a star-studded event in the presence of actor Aamir Khan and filmmaker Rajkumar Hirani, aims at establishing Jammu and Kashmir as the first choice for film shooting destination for the filmmakers. |
