Salman Khan, honored as one of the chief guests at the Kolkata International Film Festival 2023, engaged with the enthusiastic audience. Amidst the continuous cheers and applause, Salman playfully remarked, "Keep roaring; don't give me a chance to speak." Adding a touch of humor, he expressed his admiration for Mamata Banerjee, jokingly stating his jealousy over the size of her house compared to his own.

The Kolkata International Film Festival, inaugurated in 1995, draws inspiration from the legacy of iconic filmmakers such as Satyajit Ray, Ritwik Ghatak, Mrinal Sen, and other luminaries from Bengal who have made significant contributions to global cinema. The 29th edition continues to uphold this cinematic tradition, captivating audiences in Kolkata and beyond until December 12. The festival's stature is underscored by its recognition and endorsement by the International Federation of Film Producers' Association (FIAPF).
