The Minister commended the industry for efficiently adopting modern technologies and cited the example of widespread use of smartphones as cameras.

Shri Goyal lauded the Indian VFX companies involved in Hollywood movies like Avatar, highlighting their contribution to the growth of this sector.

India, being the fastest-growing economy in the world, offers unmatched opportunities for economic development and business growth to the world, along with unparalleled talent and skill base at a very competitive price. The Minister said that the media and entertainment industry can showcase to the world, the New India of today, boost the economy, reach a new audience, influence opinions, and spread positivity.

These Awards helped India convey a social message that sustainability is at the core of Indian culture and tradition. The message of Naari Shakti was also effectively conveyed as the Awards highlighted that Indian women of substance are defining the New India.
