A Heartfelt Tribute to India's Multi-linguist Poet Nida Faazli
I am shocked to know the sudden demise of well known Multi linguist, earthy, secular Poet cum Lyricist Nida Faazli on 8 Feb. 2016.The film world is orphan now having lost the towering presence of this last real poet beckon of the Hindi Film and TV World. He was nothing less than a living legend, the last Mughal amongst lyricisits ,
Selection of Films below Mark

For selecting films which are not up to the International Fest standard, one reason may be that IFFI fest is held at the fag end of the year , Most award winning films in Festivals all over the World get seen/ sold in other International Fests .

- Inaugural Function reduced to a Cheap Entertainment Event, giving it a local colour sans Indian Culture
- World Cinema or Competition Films Selection below International standard,
- Poor Infrastructure , Chaotic systems, More security personnel than Workers
- Rampant Bureaucratic rule sans accountability
- Media/Press ignored in all respects, Pathetic facilities,

A Detailed Analytical Report
