Central Board of Film Certification (CBFC) chief Prasoon Joshi says that children's films are good for adults as well.

During a panel discussion on the position of children's films in India at the ongoing 48th International Film Festival of India, Prasoon Joshi said, "I feel we have got so many beautiful stories in the country. There is so much global content. We are a land of storytellers. We have so much stories (to tell). If we put our heads together, definitely we will see global stories churned out of the country." 

The acclaimed lyricist, screenwriter and ad guru also added that India has the potential to become global powerhouse for children's films as there are many stories waiting to be told.

"A child's vision is more important for an adult than it is for a child. I believe we adults need more children films than kids because our lives are so complicated that we can't think beyond. Big production houses should support children's films. I request all those filmmakers who are capable to support children's cinema to do so. They should think about it and focus on it," he added.
