Tripura’s indigenous and talented youths will benefit through the state’s first Film and Television Institute launched in collaboration with Kolkata’s Satyajit Ray Film and Television Institute (SRFTI), said chief minister Dr Manik Saha on Monday.
“Infrastructures are required to develop one’s talent fully. In our state, there are many indigenous youths who possess cultural talents but they need a platform to nurture their qualities. This film institute can be beneficial for them,” said Dr Saha after launching Tripura Film and Television Institute at Nazrul Kalakshetra in Agartala on Monday evening.
Tripura Film and Television Institute, an academic Institute, will start with four short-term courses including screen acting, film appreciation, production management along with news reporting, anchoring and newsroom automation.
While speaking on the importance of films, deputy chief minister Jishnu Devvarma said culture of any state could be highlighted through films and expressed hopeful that Tripura could earn name in film industry or Bollywood in future.
