Blog: Film festivals

We are NGO of film enthusiasts named as Nirvan Foundation.
We are on a mission of providing platform for anyone who wants to showcase their artwork to the world. As the first step to this mission, we have formulated and sustained Jyotiba Phule International Film Festival

In 1855, Mahatma Jotiba Phule wrote his play Tritiya Ratna (Third Gem), which is also called ‘Tritiya Netra’ (The Third Eye). This play was the harbinger of social theatre. That is why Phule is known as the father of not only Marathi but also Indian social theatre. He had written this play with the objective of bringing about social change. Phule was an active social worker and thinker. He not only theorized social change but also worked for it and built a movement for social reform.
This Film Festival is small tribute to Jyotiba Phule's work!
