Recognition For Films In Media / Press
Media was extremely helpful to spread words about whatever Theatre and Film experiments we were/are doing in our infamous locality that is still identified as locality of “Criminals”. Because of media’s positive response towards our work for community development and constitutional guarantee for DNTs, today at least, certain section of the society does not look at us as “Born Criminals”.
