Set to be part of an upcoming short film award gala, Sujoy Ghosh hopes a platform that recognises talent will enable short filmmakers to seek investors. He says lack of sufficient funds is the primary factor plaguing the industry.

"While their [organisers] idea is to bring talent to the forefront, more people will be brave and invest in short films. Anyone would want returns for their investment in films, so, for an investor, such a gala [can bring solace] if his/her film get accolades." Point noted.
