MAYA is more than just a short film — it is a powerful reflection of imagination, courage, and relentless dedication. Created by the talented students of Annapurna College of Film and Media, this film stands as a proud testament to what passion, teamwork, and vision can achieve when young filmmakers are given a platform to express themselves.

From writing and direction to cinematography, performances, editing, sound, and post-production, every frame of MAYA speaks volumes about the hard work and commitment poured into this project. Seeing it travel across borders, earn selections, reach semi-finalist lists, and win awards at multiple national and international film festivals is a moment of immense pride for the entire Annapurna family.

This journey is not just about recognition — it is about growth, learning, sleepless nights, multiple retakes, creative breakthroughs, and the courage to tell a meaningful story. Each member of the team has contributed their skill, creativity, and heart, proving that the future of cinema is in the hands of passionate, disciplined, and determined storytellers.

A heartfelt congratulations to the student director, cast, crew, mentors, and the entire production team behind MAYA. Your journey has just begun, and the world is ready to witness more of your stories.

Here’s to dreamers who dared to create… and creators who dared to dream bigger.

True masculinity isn’t about strength alone — it’s reflected in empathy, respect, compassion, and the unwavering support we extend to others.

Thank you for all that you do.

Wishing everyone a very Happy International Men’s Day! 👏💙
