    Rana Daggubati, Bejoy Nambiar join MAMI board of trustees

    The 20th edition of Jio MAMI Mumbai Festival has added southern star Rana Daggubati and filmmaker Bejoy Nambiar to its board of trustees. Their induction comes days after filmmaker Anurag Kashyap, who has been accused of shielding director Vikas Bahl in an alleged sexual harassment case, stepped down as the board member. Bahl's case also led to the dissolution of Phantom Films production company.

    Rana aims to bridge gap between national and regional cinema

    Telugu superstar Rana said that his aim will be to bridge the gap between the national and regional language cinema. "Be it Malayalam cinema, Telugu cinema or Tamil cinema, some of the best independent films are made in these languages and it will be my focus to make such work be noticed on a national platform," Rana said.

    Nambiar wants to showcase some of the best from south

    Nambiar will curate the best of South Indian Cinema for the MAMI Year-Round Programme. "I hope with this responsibility I am able to showcase some of the best regional cinema from down south," he said.

    MAMI Festival this year to commemorate life, career of Sridevi

    This year, the Jio MAMI Mumbai Film Festival will be commemorating the life and incredible career of actor Sridevi, who died in February this year. The festival will honor her with the MAMI Tribute for her exceptional contribution to Indian cinema. The festival will also be honoring the renowned legacy and work of iconic Swedish auteur Ingmar Bergman.

    'Mard Ko Dard Nahi Hota' to be the opening film

    The Excellence In Cinema Award will be bestowed to filmmaker Shyam Benegal for his contribution to Indian cinema. The opening film will be Vasan Bala's 'Mard Ko Dard Nahi Hota', which bagged People's Choice Award in the Midnight Madness section at Toronto International Film Festival. The film is about a young man born without pain-receptors, longing to defeat 100 opponents in a Kumite tournament.

    Dimensions Mumbai jury to be headed by Rajkumar Hirani

    Oscar-winning filmmaker Steve McQueen's latest feature 'Widows', starring BAFTA Award winner Robert Duvall, will bring the curtains down on the festival. The Dimensions Mumbai jury will be headed by Rajkumar Hirani. The members include Nambiar, Renuka Shahane, and Parvathy. International Competition jury includes Vishal Bhardwaj, film editor Thom Noble and Jacqueline Lyanga. It will be headed by filmmaker Sean Baker.
