Lord Baden-Powell National Award 2020 winning filmmaker, Amit R Agarwal launched the International Editions of #BNHAF Awards and Festival in the US with the 10th Edition (March 19 to March 23, 2023) simultaneously being held in India, Australia, Poland and the US. Agarwal said, his vision when he started #BNHAF was to have a presence in each of the continents, today he added the Americas, Europe and Oceania to Asia.

10th Edition saw the announcement of Talent Ka Maha Utsav pre-launch Season on an international platform. Kiaan and Suhaani, students of Indian origin in the US were chosen for the awards in the categories of Best Scientific Exhibit and Best Public Speaker. They were awarded the Talent Ka Maha Utsav Pre-Launch Season Awards. TKMU (Talent Ka Maha Utsav) Season 1 is being launched at the Cannes Film Festival.

Agarwal said that he always wanted to fuse varied art-forms under one single entity, as he went on to conclude the US-leg of the launch of his 2nd book, "The Making of Virgin.. Mira" at the Secaucus Public Library and Business Resource Centre in the US with an excerpt reading from the book to the audiences. Secaucus Public Library is part of BCCLS, one of the largest library networks in the world.  Agarwal said the best part of the US launch was that he was invited to the Consulate of Bulgaria in New York, where the Consul General, Dr. Angel Angelov, himself lauded the book! Agarwal gushed he couldn't have asked for a better set-of-launches in the US leg of the book-launch. 

The 10th Edition was curated by US based Prasan Kumar, author of the children's book "Alpacas Love Apples". He asked Agarwal to shed light on multi-creative pursuits that got him to USA - #BNHAF Awards and Festival, his 2nd book - The Making of Virgin.. Mira, New York Fashion Week and Talent Ka Maha Utsav.

Agarwal said that Talent Ka Maha Utsav is very dear to him, as he has seen the plethora of talent that lies untapped not only in India, but across the world. Parents too feel the severe constraints they have in getting their children the right platform to showcase talent. Like he saw the Magalev Train science-project done by Kiaan, which was simply wow! Or why do apples rust or get brown by a young-girl all of 10; or for that matter, the tsunami phenomenon by another girl in the same age-group - this too is talent! But after the science-fair these will be forgotten within a week! Agarwal wants these to go out to as many parents and children as possible, not only today or tomorrow but even after decades - this is where Talent Ka Maha Utsav comes in.

On being queried, is singing, dancing, acting; also a part of Talent Ka Maha Utsav?
Agarwal asserted that TKMU is a unique platform in film, entertainment, media and edutainment space. The thought is that anything unique is a talent, so celebrate any talent, anyone might have. This celebration also helps or might help the children in future to forge a formidable career!

On being queried, is TKMU a children specific talent platform?
Agarwal said the focus initially is on children, but as his septuagenarian aunt lightly said, "we too are talented"; so Talent Ka Maha Utsav is open to taking any person that is brimming with talent because a grand celebration is what Talent Ka Maha Utsav, in essence, is all about!
