Mumbai Film Institutes in Mumbai

Tthere are two other big film schools coming up in Mumbai. The ambitious Whistling Woods International, to be launched by showman Subhash Ghai later this year, will offer training in acting and other film disciplines like cinematography, direction, editing, art direction etc. Sahara India group also plans to start a similar film institute. The fact that both Ghai and Sahara wish to invest heavily into such institutes is an indication that they want to tap into the booming entertainment sector that is expected to touch revenues of more than Rs.15, 000 crore in the next five years.

This is perhaps also why the Pune-based Film and Television Institute of India (FTII), the country’s premier and only government-run film school, has re-launched its acting course after a gap of 26 long years.
