AUGUST 17,2022

The 13th Indian Film Festival of Melbourne started on 12th August and will run until 30th August. This is the only Indian film festival held by the Australian government. The event is held annually to celebrate the best and most acclaimed films, series, and TV Shows in the country. One of the best nights is the award night when the best performers from the industry are awarded. This year on Sunday, an award night took place which was hosted by Rithviik Dhanjiani.

The two films, Jai Bhim and Gangubai Kathiawadi had the most nominations but failed to win a single award. The event marked a big favor for Ranveer Singh's 83, the Prime Video web series Mumbai Diaries 26/11, and the film Jalsa.
