Cinevesture announces the second edition of Cinevesture International Film Festival- Chandigarh
After a successful debut, Cinevesture International Film Festival (CIFF) is back along with a market rebranded as CinéV-CHD, which will take place on March 20-23 in Chandigarh.
Cinevesture is also thrilled to announce its partnership with the Indian Film Festival of Los Angeles (IFFLA).
The inaugural edition of CIFF garnered significant attention and hosted prominent Indian film personalities, including Karan Johar, Boman Irani, Sudhir Mishra, Shekhar Kapur, and Richa Chadha. Building on this momentum, the second edition aims to provide an enhanced platform for creative collaborations and networking.
CinéV is a series of film markets that are designed to facilitate interactions between film professionals, investors, and distributors. These markets will serve as a hub for private investors and industry insiders to explore co-production opportunities, secure funding, and forge strategic alliances. CinéV-Chandigarh 2025 marks the first such market. Registrations for CinéV-Chandigarh will open from January 14.
Cinevesture has partnered with IFFLA, the leading South Asian film festival based in Los Angeles. The partnership, CinéV-IFFLA, aligns the mission of both entities to support innovative storytelling and foster global collaborations.
The festival will host a series of insightful conversations and panel discussions. These sessions will delve into various aspects of filmmaking, including scriptwriting, directing, producing, and distribution. Renowned industry experts will share their knowledge and experiences, providing valuable insights for aspiring filmmakers and industry professionals.
Founder and CEO, Cinevesture, Nina Lath says, “Unlike other sectors, film production often presents a challenge for private investors due to its intangible nature and relatively short shelf life. Yet, the passion for cinematic storytelling and potential for substantial returns makes it an enticing opportunity. With CinéV, our mission is to bridge this gap by connecting pre-vetted projects with credible producers and investors, aiming for mutually beneficial outcomes for all involved. As we bring the second edition of our event to Chandigarh, we are excited about the growing momentum and are proud to collaborate with IFFLA, a festival that has earned the utmost respect in the Indian film industry.”
IFFLA founder Christina Marouda adds, “The partnership with Cinevesture comes at the perfect time for IFFLA as it officially expands its 23rd year legacy and footprint into the development of South Asian focused content. We could not think of a better partner than Nina and her new venture to create an ecosystem of talented storytellers and attract the right investors for these curated projects. This filmmaker-investor curated track is a gap we’re filling in with this endeavor. I'm excited for the IFFLA and Cinevesture teams to be joining hands, and cannot wait to see the results of such a unique and timely collaboration."
