Amit
Agarwal started Adarsh Telemedia in 2005 in Kolkata and from a film

festivals across the globe and thereafter would have its theatrical release.

Amit
Agarwal feels that Jharkhand has immense scope of development in this segment.
It has very talented artistes and technicians who just need little motivation
and support to showcase themselves. Amit also feels that Jharkhand has
beautiful natural locations which are very rare and filmmakers around the world
should be made aware of this. He is very thankful to Jharkhand Film Development
Corporation for coming up with the idea of Subsidy Policy which according to
him is one of the biggest opportunities for all genres of filmmakers. He is
also very thankful to JIFF – Jharkhand International Film Festival for starting
an event of such a scale, where filmmakers, both national and international are
participating to screen their films.
