The uniqueness lies in the #festivalhampers that were sent out to countless filmmakers in India and abroad. This hamper was designed locally and also sourced from local artists. The second edition of the Kalakari Film festival will be held next year, 2021. The festival has already received over 1000 #film entries in a month for the same.
