While the potential is huge, we need more focus on the foundational education. Many animation institutes are expensive and not up to the mark. Government should regulate quality and provide affordable training.

Digital India is truly a game changer. From my small town in UP, I run a YouTube channel on VFX tutorials. Earning a good living and even hiring two editors now. The internet has democratized opportunity. Jai Hind!

Working with an Indian animation studio from Canada. The talent pool here is incredible. The stories, the artistry – it's unique. India is not just a backend hub, it's becoming a content creation powerhouse.

Good to see recognition for the creator economy. But stability is key. Most gigs are project-based. Need policies for health benefits and financial security for freelancers in this 'new-age' sector.

The 2 lakh startups figure is impressive! Bangalore and Hyderabad are buzzing. Hope this energy reaches tier-2 and tier-3 cities as well. Digital infrastructure is there, now need more local mentorship and funding networks.
