A BRIEF RENDEVOUZ ON IFFI
The 53rd International Film Festival of India (IFFI) began with a grand opening ceremony in Goa at Dr Shyama Prasad Mukherjee Indoor Stadium in Panaji. IFFI, one of Asia's oldest film festivals, began with the screening of Alma and Oskar by Austrian director Dieter Berner. During the opening ceremony, Spanish film director Carlos Saura received the Satyajit Ray Lifetime Achievement Award. Chiranjeevi, the veteran actor, has been named Indian Film Personality of the Year 2022. Mr. Chiranjeevi has had a distinguished career spanning nearly four decades, appearing in over 150 films as an actor, dancer, and producer. He is a huge star in Telegu cinema, with incredible performances that touch people's hearts. Anurag Singh Thakur, Minister of Information and Broadcasting, made the announcement during the IFFI opening ceremony.
India has hosted 52 International Film Festivals of India (IFFI), both competitive and non-competitive, since 1952. From 1975 on, the festival became an annual event. The festival's 53rd edition, which includes a competition for feature films by directors from all over the world, will be held in Goa.
The International Federation of Film Producers' Associations has recognised the Festival (FIAPF). Given the success of the 51st and 52nd editions of the hybrid festival, the 53rd IFFI may offer screenings in hybrid format; the upcoming festival will screen films on its official digital platform in addition to the theatrical screenings during the festival in Goa.
