The
Bollywood
movies
are
going
to
get
special
spotlight
at
the
London
Film
Festival
this
year.
The
festival
that
begins
on
the
7th
of
August
is
organised
by
the
British
Film
Institute.
At
Cannes
this
year,
a
group
of
Indian
film
makers
met
up
with
the
London
Film
Festival
organizers
and
discussed
the
on
the
possibility
of
getting
more
focus
for
Indian
films
at
the
fest.
This
seems
to
have
won
Indian
movies
a
special
slot
at
the
fest.
Some Indian producers feel that these days the festivals mainly go for big banner films which reduces room for smaller films. However, some film makers say that the fests have their own parameters to select a film which is unaffected by the marketing strategies. Some of the Indian films to be screened at the London Film Festival this year include Rang De Basanti, Kabhie Alvida Na Kehna, Fanaa and Omkara.
