We all know how successful MAMI is getting day by day. And spearheading this event is veteran film journalists, Anupama Chopra and Smriti Kiran. However, if the best international movies weren’t enough, MAMI has not got star power to thunderbolt ahead.
For the same, ace directors, Zoya Akhtar, Anurag Kashyap and Vishal Bhardwaj and the leadership team of MAMI – Anupama and Smriti were in the capital city on Saturday to spearhead an attempt to bring the best and latest films from all over the world to add to Delhi’s art and culture.
The newly launched PVR ECX, Chanakyapuri which has great nostalgic value for Delhiites as it is a new avatar of the iconic Chanakya cinema, was the swanky venue for the launch of the Year Round Programme By MAMI. For the same, the two-day launch event premiered two of the most sought-after films of the year – Wes Anderson’s Isle of Dogs and Ari Aster’s Hereditary on the 9th & 10th of June 2018 ahead of their India release.
Ajay Bijli, Managing Director, PVR officially opened the party and said, ““ The Year Round Programme by MAMI represents one of the first opportunities for audiences in Delhi to see the very best from across the globe This was a natural progression for us to support since PVR has always encouraged and facilitated people to build a relationship with a broad range of films, ensuring that film culture can be accessed and enjoyed by everyone across.”
It is the 20th Year of MAMI and the programme is finally stepping out of Mumbai and reaching out to Delhi. With the festival already being a success, the Delhi progression was a natural choice. Let’s hope quality cinema goes beyond this and more.
So far, the MAMI Year Round Programme with 7000 members in Mumbai has screened over 40 films which include Lady Bird, The Square, Zama, The Shape of Water, Three Billboards Outside Ebbing Missourie and Village Rockstars.
