The first day first show of the 26th Kolkata International Film Festival did not see a long queue in front of Nandan like every other year. But the audience, lacking in numbers, did not lack in enthusiasm.
“The queue usually reaches till the Nandan gate and then turns alongside Sisir Mancha building towards the Sisir Mancha gate. This year it did not reach anywhere close to even the Nandan gate,” said Parash Acharya, a festival regular, waiting for the Federico Fellini classic 8½ to begin.
Of the 984 seats in Nandan 1, 436 were free to be booked on the portal bookyshow.com under the reduced seating arrangement in keeping with Covid safety protocol. “There were 226 bookings for the 9am show but less than 200 turned up,” said an usher.
