"I find the films competing in the 4th CMS VATAVARAN 2007 are of extremely high standards and the Jury had huge amount of difficultly in selecting the winner". Initiatives like CMS VATAVARAN Environment and Wildlife Film Festival helps environmental films find a regular place in the media's agenda and does a great deal for creating environment awareness."--

"Every film talked about different issues. The selection committee has done a pretty good job in that way, where they have not repeated issues. Thanks to CMS VATAVARAN, I feel very educated. Having in the media, there a few issues that you don't know in depth, CMS VATAVARAN has changed the way that I look at certain things"-- Ms Revathy Menon

"Festivals like CMS VATAVARAN open up significant spaces for the Indian documentary film movement, when such spaces elsewhere are shrinking. The festival has an amazing array of films on environment and wildlife that could generate a lot of public interest and debate." -- K. P. Jayasanker
