Films are not eligible for re-submission if previously considered by the festival. Any language is acceptable but all films are required to be english subtitled. Filmmakers wishing to attend the festival must do so at their  own travel and stay costs (unless otherwise specified in writing), and those in attendance will be expected to take part in a post screening q&as of their films. The festival takes place in london, birmingham, manchester and other cities in the uk. The 2019 festival had a pr reach of over 160 million worldwide, partly due to a multilayered relationship with bbc and indian media.


Ciné lumière teams up with the bagri foundation london indian film festival for the first time, to present a series of films, old and new, from india with love. Bollywood international film festival (biff) is an organised cultural showcase of films around the world. Inspired by true events, this film follows a bereaved mother’s search for a new identity in a rapidly changing city. An audience favourite at tribeca, pan nalin’s delightful and moving film celebrates the magic of movies. Screening a screening schedule will be announced after the final submission deadline.


By bringing the best of indian cinema to norway, bollywood festival norway presents the city and the film industry with a singular platform that fosters creative and technical talent. Following her appearance in an ivory and gold rohit bal sari in 2010, deepika padukone upped the game substantially for her second innings come 2017. Both her looks from the year—a teal brandon maxwell gown with a thigh-high slit, worn with an edgy diamond ear cuff and a plum part-sheer marchesa gown—though drastically different, favoured the one-shoulder trend. Another winning look from her roster includes the sheer zuhair murad gown with cape sleeves and lorraine schwartz jewellery. But one look that she truly wore the risk-taker’s hat (or shall we say pink satin turban) with flair for, was the tulle lime green giambattista valli gown in 2019. In the 2022, padukone attended the cannes film festival as a jury member and served some of her most memorable fashion moments.


Biff intends to provide a place that connects the film lovers and makers around the world. Your film must be a uk premiere and must not have been shown on a digital, or online platform before or during the festival screenings. The festival programming team reserve the right to pull the film out of the festival at any time. Dates and venues
