“We are grateful for the support and recognition of the public and the organisers. I am glad we got recognised without even lobbying.

“The National Film Awards is an annual awards ceremony celebrating the achievements of established and independent filmmakers, actors, actresses, casting directors, production companies, and crew who make up the motion picture industry.

“The National Film Awards holds four events annually in the United Kingdom, USA, South America, Africa, and Australia.

“The nominations and voting for the NFA are submitted and voted for by movie fans. NFA is produced by the National Film Academy which also produces the new National Film Festival,” he added.
