The competition for Generation 14plus will be held on February 28 at the Urania and the awards for the Generation Kplus competition will be announced on February 29.

“Being on the jury of the Berlin International Film Festival is a huge honour and responsibility. I feel blessed that I have got this opportunity at an early stage in my journey.

“It’s only last year that Bulbul Can Sing was part of Generation 14Plus. This is even more special since Generation section showcases films for children and youth, which are very close to my heart. I hope more filmmakers in India as well are inspired to make films for children and youth,” she said.
