“I would put it simply, and more so, because Kajal is from the movie industry herself. Look at the number of children who know when the next movie is going to be released. And, look at the number of students who know about the upcoming national and international educational opportunities from their own area of interest. You will know the difference.
Our children don’t miss out on opportunities because they aren’t good enough. It’s because they aren’t connected enough and aware enough (of those opportunities).” added the globally followed young entrepreneur and visionary thought leader.
“For a change, people will see an actor connecting them to opportunities than just their own day-to-day life.”
