Jaipur fest to pay tribute to Jag Mundhra

MUMBAI: Paying tribute to Jagmohan Mundhra, the Jaipur International Film Festival (JIFF) has decided to host a special section of his films.

Films that would be screened as a mark of remembrance to the noted director include Kamla, Bawandar and Provoked.

 
Mundhra, who had his family roots in Bikaner, attended the JIFF regularly; therefore, the need to acknowledge him and his works, say the organisers.

Festival director of JIFF Hanu Roz said, “I called him just a day before his demise and since he left a DVD of his movie with me, he asked me to send it to him in Mumbai. We spoke about his upcoming movie too.”
