Welcome to Kala-Samruddhi International Film Fesival
Kala-Samruddhi International Film Festival (KSIFF) 2026 is an international platform dedicated to celebrating outstanding cinema, discovering exceptional talent, and connecting filmmakers from around the world.
Since its inception, KSIFF has earned recognition as a growing global festival for independent and mainstream filmmakers alike.
1st Edition – 2018: Featured 200+ films from 30+ countries.
2nd Edition – 2019: Expanded significantly with 500+ films from 70+ countries, reflecting the festival's growing international reputation.
Due to the global COVID-19 pandemic and unavoidable personal circumstances, KSIFF was unable to conduct the festival from 2020 to 2025. After this pause, we are proud to return in 2026 with renewed energy, a stronger vision, and an even greater commitment to supporting filmmakers worldwide.
KSIFF welcomes submissions from emerging, independent, student, and professional filmmakers, providing a platform where creativity, originality, and powerful storytelling are recognized and celebrated regardless of budget or background.
We believe that cinema is a universal language capable of inspiring, educating, entertaining, and bringing people together across cultures and borders. Our mission is to promote artistic excellence while encouraging fresh voices and diverse perspectives from every corner of the world.
Officially selected films will receive Official Selection Laurels and Digital Certificates, while award winners will be honored with the prestigious KSIFF Winner Trophy, Winner Laurel, and Winner Certificate across multiple competition categories.
Whether you are submitting your first film or your latest masterpiece, Kala-Samruddhi International Film Festival 2026 invites you to share your vision with an international audience and become part of a global celebration of cinema.
We look forward to welcoming filmmakers from around the world to Mumbai, India, for KSIFF 2026.
