“I’m absolutely thrilled to have the opportunity to work on the DESIblitz Film Fusion Festival . We had some lively debates on who the winners should be for each award and I know we made the right decisions in the end. The best inspirational film winner went to SCARS which was directed by Ojaswwee Sharma and they really did an excellent job on this film and the film touched our audiences in the UK.”

Hats off to director Ojaswwee Sharma and his entire team for bringing this vital historical incident to the limelight through the descendants of the martyrs. This brave film is a deserved winner, particularly for its educational aspects.”

Even after more than a hundred years of the Jallianwala Bagh massacre, it is one story that must travel far and wide, as the recall value of true stories of the nation’s freedom struggle and it’s impact on the present day sate of the families is left much unspoken.
