Noted director Jahnu Barua has won the prestigious Kodak Vision Award for his film "Maine Gandhi Ko Nahin Mara" at the just-concluded Fukuoka International Film Festival in Japan. "It's a great feeling to win this honour. I am happy I could make the film conceived 10 years before it was actually produced, and the credit for it goes to Anupam Kher who came forward to produce it after talks with NFDC fell through," Barua told PTI here today. The award, the only one given at the Fukuoka festival and chosen by a voting audience, comprises a citation, a trophy and negative film from Kodak worth 2.5 million yen. "My biggest honour was that the film was highly appreciated by the Japanese audience, and the organisers had to schedule two extra screenings," Barua said. "The interaction with the audience after the screenings was interesting, as they showed deep appreciation for Gandhian philosophy and asked me a lot of questions about it and Indian society."
