Following its highly successful inaugural edition in 2024, Red Lorry Film Festival, the country’s premiere international film festival curated by BookMyShow, is set to return with an even grander celebration of cinema. Expanding its cinematic universe, this year’s festival will not only dazzle Mumbai audiences but also make its debut in Hyderabad with Red Lorry Film Festival: Parallel Verse. Scheduled from March 21st to 23rd, 2025 the festival promises an enthralling celebration of global cinema, with over 120 titles showcasing diverse stories across languages, genres and cultures.

This year, the festival introduced its much-anticipated Competition Segment, a platform designed to recognise and celebrate exceptional talent and artistry in filmmaking inviting submissions for the same. The segment honours groundbreaking cinematic craft while providing a global stage for both emerging and established filmmakers across two key categories. It aims to celebrate the power of storytelling and amplify fresh voices that can redefine creativity in our cinema-loving country.
