Producer Sushilkumar Agrawal is delighted with the response to the film from buyers and other participants at the fest after its screening May 17. <img alt="Nila Madhab Panda" src="/imagedata/2012/may/Nila-Madhab-Panda.jpg" style="width: 500px; height: 592px; " /> Nila Madhab Panda &#39;Jalpari: The Desert Mermaid&#39;, which focuses on female foeticide, will once again be showcased at the gala on Wednesday. &quot;The story of &#39;Jalpari&#39; is largely based on the issue of female foeticide, but it has been treated as an adventure thriller and journey film,&quot; Agrawal said in a statement. &quot;Indian children&#39;s cinema is now attracting a lot of interest in foreign markets, and like &#39;I Am Kalam&#39;, Panda&#39;s &#39;Jalpari&#39; will also surely be a great success,&quot; he added. Panda says the movie&#39;s first screening at Cannes itself has helped them get invitations from other international extravaganzas too. &quot;As the film was not complete earlier, I could not send it for official selection in Cannes, but we brought it to the market and got a fantastic response here. We have got invites from many festivals already,&quot; Panda said. The film features child actors Lehar Khan and Krishang Trivedi as protagonists along with &quot;I Am Kalam&quot; child star Harsh Mayar. It also features Parvin Dabas, Tannishtha Chatterjee, Rahul Singh, Suhasini Mulay and V.M. Badola.u00a0
