Vasavan presided over the ceremony. Mr. Vijayan presented the Lifetime Achievement Award to documentary filmmaker and editor Reena Mohan.
“I dedicate this award to all the women editors who, along with their art, remain largely unsung and to other women who work hard in many other capacities in cinema. A special shout out to the members of the Women in Cinema Collective (WCC), who are fighting the good fight on our behalf,” said Ms. Mohan in her acceptance speech.
