This year’s edition of the Mumbai Film Festival started with its opening ceremony at the restored Royal Opera House. While the re-opening of venue was the talk of the town, cinephiles were happy that two iconic filmmakers, Jia Zhangke and Sai Paranjpye, were honoured with Excellence In Cinema Awards.
