Today’s media is being used as a tool by Corporate as well as individuals for building sustainable development of the society at large. However, in a scenario where the media is generally entertainment driven, positive attempts by Individuals and Corporate hidden from the public. Because of this, players in the public broadcasting space seem to have diminished and positive role of media, its various issues and solutions are not discussed at all on the public platform.

 

The Event will held at School of Computer Science & IT, DAVV, Takshshila Campus, Khandwa Road, Indore M.P. 452001

 

This Festival It’s an attempt to introduce those films to the public which are based on social relevant issues and best films will be awarded, so that the new generation of film makers gets inspired. Because of its India’s first â€˜India Social Responsibility Film Festival’ those all Films are being welcomed which have been created by Individuals or Corporate entities in last three years.
