The star attraction of the day was A R Rahman's presence to share his VR experience which had the crowd totally charged up. The other major highlight was Philip Lee's session at the Producer's Lab. The other eminent speakers also added sparkle to the day and there was excitement and anticipation in the air, which was very palpable.
