Boman Irani, Actor, Filmmaker, and Founder – Irani Movietone, said, “Writers want this, but producers need this. FYI is not just a platform; it’s a wake-up call to the industry to listen, to engage, and to find the next wave of original voices. It’s heartening to see FICCI build this ecosystem of trust and structure that both sides of the table desperately need.”
Ashish Kulkarni, Chief Mentor – FICCI FYI, said, “FYI is a powerful reminder that the media and entertainment industry thrives on collaboration, courage, and creative empathy. It’s encouraging to see so many producers open their doors to new voices and diverse stories. As India’s creative economy expands, FYI will continue to be a catalyst for discovery and inclusion.”
Munjal Shroff, Chairman, FICCI AVGC & XR Forum, said, “The creative energy at FYI this year was electric. To see over 3,000 one-on-one meetings happen with focus and enthusiasm under one roof — that’s extraordinary. FYI 2025 proved how structure and heart can coexist beautifully in the creative process.”
Viraf Patell, Actor, Writer, and Creative Director – FICCI Frame Your Idea, said, “We had 3,233 meetings, but really, it was about hope, writers showing up with stories that mean something to them, and producers taking the time to listen, hoping to find their next big idea or screenplay. Frame Your Idea was built to restore dignity and access for writers, and this year, it truly felt like those walls came down. I’m deeply grateful to every producer, writer, community partner and volunteer who made this movement possible.”
