At the 55th International Film Festival of India (IFFI) in Goa, the evening turned extraordinary as renowned actor Anupam Kher led a masterclass on the “Power of Failure,” sharing his inspiring mantra to never give up, no matter how many setbacks one faces.

Earlier in the day, celebrated cinematographer John Seale hosted a masterclass and emphasized that cinematography has no fixed formula, as every project demands fresh and creative approach based on its unique story and context.

Another highlight of the day was the ‘Creative Minds of Tomorrow’ event, where participants created short films within 48 hours. The competition concluded today, with the results set to be announced tomorrow.

The vibrant Film Bazaar was equally bustling, drawing a large turnout of actors, producers, distributors, and other industry professionals eager to network and collaborate.

The day, which began with the scheduled screening of over 70 films, ended on a lively note with the musical IFFIesta. Festival-goers enjoyed performances by Anumita Nadesan, cultural showcases, and delicious food, rounding off an eventful day.
