final aahan full thumb Aahan 2011 – Film Festival short filmAahān 2011 is an Endeavour by the students of Shri Vile Parle Kelavani Mandal’s Usha Pravin Gandhi College that aims to create a hub where enthusiasts of media, management and information technology can come together to collaborate and innovate.

Aahān goes beyond the quintessential college festival yet retains the flavours that go into the making of one. It dispels all clichés but retains familiarity. It aims for excellence but holds on to exuberance. Offering students the best of three worlds, Aahān is the difference. The 11th, 12th and 13th of January marks the beginning of a revolutionary convergence.

We have an International Short Film competition in Aahān which is also one of the USP events of the fest. It would be great if you can participate by sending us your short films!!

ISF: (International Short Film Competition)

Do you aspire to be the next Spielberg or Coppola? Is the film reel your weapon o…f choice when it comes to expressing yourself? If so, make your film available to the opinion of veterans in the field who will give you constructive criticism and show you a clear direction to pursue.

Turn your passion into a profession at… the International Short Film Competition at Aahān 2011 hosted by the Usha Pravin Gandhi College of Management in Mumbai, India. With over 1000 short films from 43 countries being screened over the period of the last 3 years, the festival has been a hub for student filmmakers to showcase their films to the public and an opportunity for amateurs to turn pro.

It’s Lights, Camera, Aahān!

Details of the short filmmaking competition:

If the films are student made they are entered into a competition and a renowned jury from the Indian Film Industry judges them. If the films are non-student made, they are not eligible for the competition, but they definitely recieve valuable feedback.
It is a great opportunity for students and the others too to portray their talent.
