Hi Sudhanwa,
Please have a look at today's MOD , https://upload.wikimedia.org/w ikipedia/commons/6/6a/Royal_Thai_Air_Force_Airbus_A340-500_ touch-and-go_at_Phuket_5Oct2016.webm
May be you can add more questions here. Carry on...
I am interested in the answers. If you (and others) can give them, it will initiate a nice brainstorming discussion. I know there are many senior wikipedians on the list (icluding yourself) who can add their views in the discussion. Our ultimate objective is to improve Wikipedia.

Hi,
With due respect to the videographer and his intentions, but then what is that video about? What is so great about the video to become video of the day? It shows some people moving around across some pavilions, some dirty roads and stray dogs.
Are there any guidelines for a good video. Rather for any file uploaded on commons. Can it show any association to the article where it is used? I am seriously curious about the whole thing. Unfortunately, people do not like any questions on such matters. Similar questions were/are applicable to various photo contests too.

বিশ্বরূপদাকে অভিনন্দন জানাই! আমরা বিশ্বরূপদার জন্য গর্বিত।
ধন্যবাদ, কল্যাণ সরকার
All,
I just noticed that Biswarup da's video of 2016 Kolkata Book Fair https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:40th_International_Kolkata_Book_Fair_-_Milan_Mela_Complex_-_Kolkata_2016-02-02_0612.ogv has been chosen as the media of the day!
Congratulations to Biswarup da! We are proud of you!
Thanks and regards, Kalyan Sarkar

It is true that there is no proper guideline for the selection of Media of the day files (https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/Commons:Media_of_the_day), to be displayed in the main page, or if there is any, I couldn't find it. The nomination is supposed to happen in https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/Commons_talk:Media_of_the_day , but looks like the nominations are scanty and irregular along with the reviews. Looking at the history section, I assume that if a user takes interest in MOTD and find videos from Commons and enlist them in the MOTD page, then its selected by default. May be I am wrong.

I agree, this needs to be discussed in Commons Village pump ( https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/Commons:Village_pump) where more Commons users can participate about implementation of proper review process.
