Talking about Jagran Film Festival Manoj Bajpayee  said, that it’s a fantabulous concept of exposing cinema and generating audience across India. JFF provides such movies an opportunity to reach a larger audience, who can’t get to watch them at the cinema.

Aligarh’s journey has been a great one and it’s going to places we are receiving amazing response from the audience and it’s very satisfactory.

 

Young and Dashing Rajkummar Rao was very excited, talking about the festival he said, I have been associated with the festival for long, my movies included Shahid and others were screened here previously and I’m glad to be here with Aligarh being screened here.
