Speaking on the occasion, Viraj Jit Singh, Chief Marketing Officer, KidZania India, said, "KidZania believes that every child has at least one innate talent and it is important to support and encourage them at a young age to help build their self-confidence. The response to KidZania Zuperstar 2015 has been overwhelming and we have found the cultural ambassadors for KidZania Mumbai. We are proud that we were able to provide an opportunity to kids from NGOs, making this platform special and accessible to everyone."
