While celebrity endorsements are great, I hope the focus remains on authentic cultural preservation rather than just Bollywood glamour. The local artisans and performers deserve equal spotlight.

The integration of cinema with traditional arts is brilliant! Hope this inspires more regional collaborations across India. Each state has such unique cultural treasures waiting to be showcased.

Great initiative! But I wish they'd also focus on making such festivals more accessible to middle-class families. The costs for travel and accommodation in Ladakh can be quite high during peak season.
