The world’s largest traveling film festival received an overwhelming response from both Patna and Gorakhpur. Uri session with real life heroes was received extremely well and audience showed their support for the army with flags in Patna. Vinay Pathak and Richa Chaddha’s in-conversations had to be forcefully ended upon already exceeding the prescribed time limit and the questions from audience wouldn’t cease.

Ravi Kishan and Anoop Soni’s in-conversation in Patna and inauguration ceremony in Gorakhpur were a huge hit. Especially in Gorakhpur, as Ravi Kishan is rooted within the region in his ventures. A lot of movie fans also attended TVF masterclass. Jhalki screening – Inaugural movie directed by

Brahmanand Singh and produced by Kailash Satyarthi Children’s foundation was accompanied by 2 people’s narratives on how the foundation helped them get emancipated from child labour and formed a huge emotional connect with the packed hall.
