The sheer majesty of literature overflowing across the boundaries of Jaipur’s Diggi Palace, Jaipur Literature Festival is only becoming beautiful by the day. From inviting world’s most eminent speakers, authors, environmentalists among various other realms of the cosmos, to curating meaningful sessions which leave a mark and are not just a hot balloon.
If you have attended JLF, you would know what I am saying. But if you haven’t, it’s high time you attend the Jaipur Literature Festival 2018, which also happens to be the 11th edition of the World’s largest free literary festival.
JLF garnered eyeballs at notable celebrities who came in yesterday. These included notable actor Nawaazudin Siddique, ace director Vishal Bharadwaj and Anurag Kashyap. Today, i.e. January 27, the festival has lined up the most anticipated session of the festival.
Here are the reasons and the speakers which you cannot afford to miss you if you are flocking to JLF.
None other than the exceptional and controversy-surrounded, Shashi Tharoor makes his way into the JLF’18 today, making it thronged by uncountably humongous people from different walks of life.
