Present at the occasion, Prosenjit Chatterjee expressed, “It is so overwhelming to be a part of such a beautiful initiative; and with these kids having such cheerful faces I can now certainly say that the beginning of Devi-Paksha this year couldn’t have been better for me. For us Bengalis, Durga Puja is the biggest festival for which we wait throughout the year, hence, doing a film like Gumnaami is equally exciting. Gumnaami will be releasing on 2nd October, nationally.”

Eminent theatre and movie personality Vinay Pathak, who also came to be a part of the initiative, said, “Throughout the country we have seen how Bengalis are excited about this mega festival called Durga Puja. Needless to say, that in Kolkata, we find the truest spirit of it. But without spending time with these kids and making their Pujo special, my Durga Puja would have remained incomplete.”
