National Film Awards Ceremony Moves to Gujarat’s Kevadia for First Time in 72 Years
The 72nd National Film Awards ceremony will be held in Kevadia (Ekta Nagar), Gujarat, on September 22, marking the first time in 72 years the event moves outside Delhi. President Droupadi Murmu will present the awards near the Statue of Unity, a prominent landmark in the region. Major winners include "Article 370" for Best Feature Film, Yami Gautam as Best Actress, and Mammootty and Kartik Aaryan sharing Best Actor. The shift breaks a long-standing tradition of hosting the ceremony in Delhi's Vigyan Bhawan.
