Former Bollywood superstar Madhuri Dixit is the chief guest at the Sixteen: Nine International Film Festival of Usha Pravin Gandhi College in Vile Parle, Mumbai.
A source from UPG confirms, "Madhuri Dixit is coming to give away the awards on the 13th of January which is the finale of the 2-day film festival."
Along with Madhuri Dixit, hottie Imran Khan, producers Sanjay Gupta and Ravi Chopra, director Goldie Behl and veteran actress Shabana Azmi will also give away some awards, according to the official website of the festival. Directors Aziz Mirza and Anurag Kashyap will inaugurate the festival. Hard Kaur will perform at the finale.
Aamir Khan was the Chief Guest at the festival last year and gave away the prizes in different categories. He said he doesn't attend award ceremonies but this was different as it was done by students and he couldn't say no because he was a student of Narsee Monjee (NM) College. He promised he would keep himself free this year as well to attend the festival. Unfortunately, that has not happened because he is busy shooting for Raju Hirani's 3 Idiots in Bangalore. He will be coming to Bombay today for a few hours to attend the Ghajini success party and to wish nephew Imran whose birthday is on 13 January.
Madhuri Dixit is currently in town with her family and she was also the Guest of Honour at the International Kite Festival held at The Club in Andheri, Mumbai on Sunday.
This film festival is the property of Usha Pravin Gandhi College in Vile Parle. Now in its second year, it showcases short films, documentaries and other films made by budding filmmakers from all across the globe. Seminars on different aspects of cinema are held by experts from those fields during the course of the two day event. The finale comprises the awards distribution and a musical performance.
