Since that historical event in 1896 when Lumiere Brothers demonstrated the art of cinema in Mumbai, the Indian Film Industry today has grown by leaps and bounds. Hundreds of people from different sectors of Film Industry have toiled to make Industry what it is today. The industry enjoys the fruits of hard work of these veterans who are the pillars of the industry.
It is the right time to pay them back for their great contribution.
OBJECTIVE
Our objective, rather heartfelt desire is to remember and honor these noble souls. This event is purely a gettogether of the veterans, where yester year's legends meet today's celebrities and share their memories. As a token of our gratitude to these spirited persons we wish to present 11 Living Legends every year with a commemorative cash gift. This is the beginning and God willing it will never end. As HH Dalai Lama rightly said “If you want others to be happy, practice compassion. If you want to be happy, practice compassion”. The list of worthy stars is long but we are short listing 11 of the stalwarts for this years honor.
ABOUT THE EVENT :
This is an event to felicitate and honour living legends of Hindi cinema who have given their life in the service of entertaining the masses as well as the classes. We intend to present a precious momento as a token of appreciation towards their contribution to Indian cinema. The event is a celebration of creativity of the veterans and remind them that we have not forgotten their contribution and in fact it is due to their hard work that the Hindi film industry is recognized all over the world. We would continue the tradition once every year. This being introduction year, we are mainly covering Hindi films but eventually we would like to cover the entire Indian film industry. The organizing committee will consult the advisory committee consisting of veterans of Indian cinema who will guide the committee on the course of action.
