The industry, which is also known as “Tollywood’, locally, has chosen the “Siam Pavalai’ theatre in Thailand as its venue for the “Film Award Bangla 2010 (FAB 2010)’. The 6th floor of the “Paragon Complex’, will see the event hosted on June 13 and 14.

The event is aimed to promote Bengali films and Indian culture internationally. This award is akin to the Academy Awards for the Bengali film industry. It will be graced by the Bengali speaking people in Bangladesh as well as others from the different parts of India.

The opening ceremony of the event and the awards presentation will take place on June 14 at 6pm. The gala night will see more than 400 Tollywood actors, who will walk the red carpet. Directors Aniruddha Roychowdhury and Buddhadeb Dasgupta, renowned actress Arpita Pal, Indraneel Sengupta, veteran Aparna Sen, Indrani Dutta, Indrani Haldar and Dhritiman Chatterjee will all grace the event.
