India Film Project Marks 15 Years as Global Creative Festival
Imagine a big party for creative people that happens every year.
This year is a super special one because it's the 15th anniversary of the India Film Project, or IFP!
It started small, like an idea in a college dorm, but now it's huge and everyone around the world can join.
People from over 350 cities and 23 countries participated in fun challenges where they had to make movies, music, art, and more in just 50 hours!
Famous artists and filmmakers are judging the work and sharing their thoughts.
The IFP is a place where new ideas are born and creativity can grow without any limits.
It's all about celebrating stories and art.
The India Film Project (IFP) is celebrating its 15th edition on November 29-30 at Mehboob Studios in Mumbai.
What began as a small concept has grown into a global festival attracting thousands of participants and millions of viewers.
This year's 50-Hour Creative Challenges saw a record 40,000 participants from 23 countries across six categories.
