The world’s biggest 9-day international children’s film festival has been organized by the City Montessori School (CMS) in Lucknow since April 10. The film festival has been concluding today i.e. on April 18. The closing ceremony of the event has inaugurated by the chief guest Upendrra Rai, Chairman, MD and Editor-in-Chief of Bharat Express News Network. Singer Vivek Prakash, actress Renita Kapoor and actor and theatre artist Anil Rastogi have encouraged thousands of children present on this occasion.

While addressing the gathering of young and creative minds at the closing ceremony of the International Children’s Film Festival, the chairman of Bharat Express News Network, Upendrra Rai said, “It is said that communicating with children is easy and simple, however, I feel it’s not as it is difficult too. In simple words, whenever you are talking to children, their eyes resemble same that of the great Buddha and Mahavir. But, difficult in the sense as they are so innocent, pure that can mould themself very easily despite us.”

The senior journalist Upendrra Rai said, “Someone has said right that whenever a person resembles Lord Buddha and Mahavir, he turns into a child and I have often seen it. I almost visited 60 countries, including 26 countries with our Prime Minister. I observed one thing, that I am sure that you also have done, that there are two qualities that are common in every child all over the world. First, a child can be busy without doing anything. Also, he can be happy without any motivation needed. Children will indeed get engaged in their world. But, today I want to clarify that the presence of children is just like the presence of God. They actually pay little attention to the words of elders still they excel in their lives.”

Moreover, the chairman also stated several exciting examples that deal with children’s physiology, behaviour etc, during the closing ceremony.

During this nine-day programme of the International Children’s Film Festival, around 612 magnificent children’s educational films from 104 nations are being showcased for free. Also, this film festival has also featured a number of notable film industry figures. The programme of the festival has been divided into the categories of Feature Fiction, Short Fiction, Feature Animation, Short Animation, and Short Documentary.
