Children's film is the lone genre neglected by the mainstream as well as non-commercial segments by the Indian film Industry.

There are various factors that involve with unflinching of such projects even by frontline film makers. 

Though there are recent successes stories about such films like 'Tare Zameen Par' tempt certain directors and audience who would be ready to launch and view of such genre, however, there are few producers and film makers who don't have iota of exposure in how to make a children's film.

The market value, story, stars and casting, supports are some of the tasks have to be sorted out before deciding a children's genre. 

The first female director of India and ex CFSI Chairperson Sai Paranjape says that finance is the major factor against making these films.

However, few feel against such views and illustrate an alternative way through investing one tenth of total cost of mainstream film supposedly 20 crore as 2 crore.

On the other there are positive views many quarters citing examples of TZP success and beyond like Nafisa Ali current Chairperson of CFSI predict the cultural root never compromise with commercial or any other negative factors against this genre.

Children are part of the family set-up and any film about them attracts other members too. Therefore they have wider appeal equaling to other features.  

Even though there is an objection of treating a full length children film as a commercial one. 

Highlight of the issue is there are children film festivals are organized regularly by CFSI and awards are also facilitated.

The younger population in India comprised about 70 million it has few serious minds to talk about children's film.

What is need of the hour is to make children film a separate sector and give tax concessions for making films/documentaries and arranging theatres to screen films at convenient timings for their view. 

The role of children in the society gets prominence since influence by them felt at from selecting consumer brands to home construction; therefore leaving a separate choice to know their problems and right intervention from concerned sections increase the relevancy of the genre.
