Kerala Rolls Out Draft Film Policy Aimed At Funding, Gender Equality And Global Reach
Last Updated: Kerala's draft film policy aims to formalise the industry, enhance global presence, and promote inclusivity. It includes financial mechanisms, gender equity, and tech adoption. In a significant step towards transforming its film sector, the Kerala government has released a comprehensive draft film policy aimed at formalising the industry, enhancing its global footprint, and promoting inclusivity. The policy was unveiled on Saturday during the ongoing two-day Malayalam Film Conclave in Thiruvananthapuram. Framed with a futuristic vision, the policy outlines strategic goals including industry recognition for film production and exhibition, improved financial mechanisms, gender equity, and the adoption of advanced technology. It also aspires to make Kerala a regional production hub while preserving the cultural legacy of Malayalam cinema. Declaring that film production will now be recognised as a formal industry, the draft underlines the benefits of transparency, financial clarity, and social accountability. 'The recognition of film production as an industry will bring multiple advantages, enhancing transparency and promoting social responsibility within the sector," the policy notes. One of the cornerstones of the policy is an inclusive financing framework. It proposes a general incentive scheme for Malayalam cinema, with targeted support for women and marginalised communities. Plans are also in place to establish a venture capital fund for film production, with the involvement of private players and provisions for crowdfunding, especially for films with strong social relevance. This fund will be managed by the Kerala State Film Development Corporation. To ensure Kerala remains competitive on the global stage, the policy encourages the production of films in other Indian and foreign languages within the state. A single-window film facilitation centre will also be launched to simplify permit procedures and attract more projects to the region. The policy highlights that India, producing over 2,000 films annually, remains the world's largest film-producing nation. Malayalam cinema ranks second after Hindi, with around 300 films produced each year. In 2023, Kerala contributed over ₹2,000 crore to the national box office, reflecting its significant role in India's cinematic economy. A new Film Development Council, led by Chief Minister Pinarayi Vijayan and co-chaired by Culture Minister Saji Cherian, is proposed as the apex body to guide implementation. The council will also include an industry representative as vice-chairperson. The draft has been circulated to stakeholders and will be deliberated further during the conclave, which concludes on Sunday. The government reiterated its commitment to consulting film bodies on matters such as fair wages, insurance, and working conditions, ensuring that reforms benefit every layer of the industry. view comments First Published: Disclaimer: Comments reflect users' views, not News18's.

Hrithik Roshan's Latest Look Breaks The Internet, Fans Call Him ‘Greek God'
Actor is gearing up for War 2. The film is already generating massive buzz thanks to its action-packed trailer. Hrithik Roshan is once again proving why he's called the style icon of Bollywood. The actor, gearing up for the much-awaited release of War 2, recently dropped new photos in a sharply tailored suit, and fans are completely losing it. Note that War 2 also stars Kiara Advani and Jr NTR in the lead role. Taking to his Instagram handle, Hrithik Roshan shared a series of photos in suits and wrote, 'Thank you Sri Lanka for a memorable evening. See you soon in the cinemas 14th aug #WAR2." One of the fan wrote, 'Tenu Suit always suit kar da! Dashing Duggu as always." Another wrote, 'Hrithik, you are Amazing!!! Mr. Perfect!" Many called his Greek God. Take a look here: Recently, the superstar has launched a contest based on the hookstep of the recently released romantic track Aavan Jaavan, and the reward? A chance to meet the man himself. Taking to Instagram on Friday (August 1), Hrithik unveiled the challenge in a video message, urging fans to recreate the song's now-viral dance step. 'My latest song Aavan Jaavan from War 2 is out now and YRF is doing a contest on the hook step. Iss gaane ka hookstep kaafi simple aur easy hai… Toh kariye Aavan Jaavan ka hookstep Kabir aur Kavya ke jaise to join and maybe win this contest," he said. Released on July 31, Aavan Jaavan is already setting the tone for the film's romantic subplot. Featuring Hrithik and Kiara Advani amid the breathtaking backdrops of Europe, the song has all the hallmarks of a Bollywood blockbuster melody — sweeping visuals, sizzling chemistry, and soaring vocals by Arijit Singh and Nikhita Gandhi. Meanwhile, War 2 is already generating massive buzz thanks to its action-packed trailer. Directed by Brahmāstra helmer Ayan Mukerji, the film brings together Hrithik Roshan and Jr NTR in a never-seen-before pairing that promises fireworks. The sequel to 2019's War, this next installment in the YRF Spy Universe is poised to be one of the biggest cinematic spectacles of the year. With themes of patriotism, espionage, and high-octane drama, War 2 is all set to raise the stakes in the spy-action genre. From thunderous face-offs to sizzling romance, fans can expect a full-blown cinematic experience when the film hits theatres later this year. But before that, it's time to dance like Kabir and Kavya — and maybe, just maybe, meet Hrithik himself. view comments First Published: Disclaimer: Comments reflect users' views, not News18's.
