Noida: The prestigious 10th Hindi Cinema Samman will be presented during the 19th Global Film Festival Noida 2026, adding another significant milestone to one of India’s prominent celebrations of cinema, media, art and culture. Announcing the 10th edition of the awards, Dr. Sandeep Marwah, President of the Global Film Festival Noida and Chancellor of AAFT University of Media and Arts, said that the Hindi Cinema Samman was instituted to recognize and honour distinguished personalities whose outstanding contribution has strengthened Indian cinema and enhanced its reputation nationally and internationally.
“Hindi cinema is one of India’s most powerful cultural ambassadors. For decades, it has carried our stories, emotions, music, traditions and values to audiences across the world. Through the Hindi Cinema Samman, we salute those extraordinary individuals whose creativity, dedication and lifelong contribution have enriched the film industry and inspired generations,” said Dr. Sandeep Marwah.
Dr. Marwah added that the completion of ten editions of Hindi Cinema Samman represents a decade-long commitment to acknowledging excellence and preserving the legacy of Indian cinema. “The 10th edition is a landmark for us. Our objective is not merely to present an award, but to document and celebrate the contribution of those who have given a new dimension to Hindi cinema. Their achievements form an important chapter in India’s cultural history,” Dr. Marwah emphasized.
The 19th Global Film Festival Noida 2026, hosted at Marwah Studios, Noida Film City, will bring together filmmakers, actors, producers, directors, writers, technicians, film educators, media professionals, diplomats and cinema enthusiasts from India and abroad. The festival is designed as an international platform for promoting creative excellence, cultural diplomacy, film education, global cooperation and “Love, Peace and Unity Through Art and Culture.” A series of film screenings, workshops, masterclasses, seminars, exhibitions, discussions, cultural programmes and interactions with distinguished personalities will form part of the festival.
The 10th Hindi Cinema Samman ceremony is expected to be one of the major highlights of the 19th Global Film Festival Noida, celebrating the remarkable journey of Hindi cinema and honouring personalities who have contributed substantially to its growth, prestige and international presence.
