“EquallyLoud by The Little Art has started a great debate as usually these topics are seldom discussed or are left unaddressed. In such cases, continuity is key and I would urge the team to take this even further ahead.” |

"It is the children’s voice. It touches the heart and I think it will touch the heart of the audience as well. A lot of important issues have been raised and implemented in a very delicate way. If you look at the faces of the children, they were all smiling; nobody was bored. This shows that the message does reach out. And obviously when these kids have gone home and spoken about what they’re doing, then I don’t think this remains within the classroom." |

All the children who created these films were from underprivileged backgrounds and I’m very happy to see that you have inspired and mentored them to come out and express themselves as no one has ever given them this opportunity because of absence of such facilities. |
