Prime Minister Narendra Modi, while inaugurating India's first National Museum of Indian Cinema in Mumbai today, said films are a "silent power" that can quietly bring about major social changes. He added that films give shape to people's hopes and aspirations and that in a new India "million problems have billion solutions."

Tent cinema has returned to the Capital thanks to the ongoing Indian cinema centenary festival where the audience is enjoying the escapades of the legendary Hunterwali in a 1940s talkie and rare silent films like Diler Jiger or Gallant Hearts (1931).

Noted film historian BD Garga died in the wee hours this morning following a few days of brief illness. He was 86.
