Siraj Zaidi, who has had an illustrious career spanning over 40 years, was specially invited to India to conduct this workshop. As a prominent figure in the Irish and Indian film industries, Zaidi brought a wealth of experience, having fostered cultural relations between India and Ireland through numerous artistic collaborations. Notably, he also serves as the Director of the Indian Film Festival of Ireland, which recently celebrated its 15th successful edition in Dublin.
In the workshop, Zaidi shared insights into his journey as an actor and filmmaker, emphasizing the deep cultural connection between India and Ireland. He spoke about the evolution of cinema in both countries, highlighting the impact of storytelling as a bridge between diverse cultures. His engaging and informative session covered various aspects of international cinema, offering students a unique perspective on acting techniques, filmmaking nuances, and the importance of cultural representation in cinema.
The students of AAFT were captivated by Zaidi’s passion and expertise, and they found his practical advice invaluable for their own careers in the film industry. Zaidi’s discussion on Indo-Ireland relations, especially through the lens of art and culture, inspired attendees to explore cross-cultural storytelling in their own creative pursuits.
“It is a privilege to learn from an artist of Siraj Zaidi’s caliber, especially in such a personal and interactive setting,” expressed one of the students. “This workshop has broadened our understanding of international cinema and the unique relationship between India and Ireland. We are grateful for the opportunity.”
Dr. Sandeep Marwah, President of Marwah Studios, expressed his appreciation for Zaidi’s contribution to the festival, stating, “Siraj Zaidi’s workshop has added immense value to this festival, providing young filmmakers with invaluable insights into the global film industry. The Indo-Ireland Film and Cultural Forum remains dedicated to fostering cross-cultural understanding through initiatives like these, and we are honored to host Siraj Zaidi at Marwah Studios.”
The Irish Film Festival of India, organized by the Indo-Ireland Film and Cultural Forum, continues to serve as a cultural bridge between the two nations, offering a platform for artistic exchange and educational opportunities for young talent.
