VIVO SIIMA to hosts its First Short

SIIMA, the Biggest and the most viewed
South Indian Film Awards is back with its Sixth Edition and VIVO is roped in as
the Title Sponsor. The awards ceremony will be hosted in Abu Dhabi on June 30th
and July 1st and will see in attendance the biggest names from the
South Indian Film Industry. Vivo SIIMA will be hosting its first ever Short
Film Awards for the Telugu and Kannada languages in Hyderabad on May 14th. The
awards ceremony will be a glittering affair and will see in attendance the
who’s who of the Telugu and Kannada film industry and the Short film award
winners.
The short
film awards which were announced a month back saw a huge enthusiasm and
participation from the short film makers. The jury had a tough task ahead in
shortlisting the nominees and deciding the winners.
With
the digital revolution which India is going through, SIIMA thought this would
be the right time to encourage and give the right platform to short filmmakers
and recognize their talent. Over
the last two years more and more aspiring film makers are taking to internet to
show their talent and we have observed a trend of short film makers becoming
highly successful film makers.
The
awards ceremony will see in attendance Rana Daggubati, Lakshmi Manchu, Regina
Cassandra, Allu Sirish, Pranitha Subhash, Mrs.Brinda Prasad - Chairperson SIIMA and Mr. Vivek Zhang -
Marketing Head Vivo Mobile and
many more. The awards are judged by a highly distinguished jury and filmmakers
have been nominated in 8 categories in each language. The awards for short filmmakers in Tamil and
Malayalam language will be given away on May 28th in Chennai.
