Special guest Professor Imran Rahman, Vice-Chancellor, University of Liberal Arts Bangladesh, said, "We have identified the gap that no-one was filling and MSJ Department filled the gap by launching the film festival for mobile films."
The Chief Guest at the Closing Ceremony Filmmaker Mostofa Sarwar Farooki said, "You, the present generation, are far ahead of us. The advantage of making films with a mobile phone is that you get the same benefits that a filmmaker gets while sitting abroad that we did not have in our time. I can see a lot of potential faces among you."
