We evaluate raw craft without compromise. Review the eligibility criteria, technical formats, and submission deadlines required to secure your greenlight.
Entry Criteria

Eligible Disciplines
Zero Hidden Charges
Open to all Indian citizens aged 18 and above. We welcome creators from every state, bringing localized narratives to the national stage.

This is a purely merit-first initiative. There are no hidden charges, or paid fast-tracks at any stage.
