New Delhi: Payal Kapadia’s All We Imagine As Light and Sandhya Suri’s Santosh were among the biggest winners at the 18th Asian Film Awards, held on Sunday at the Xiqu Centre in the West Kowloon Cultural District, Hong Kong. The prestigious event, which celebrates excellence in Asian cinema, saw All We Imagine As Light win the Best Film award, competing against Black Dog (China), Exhuma (South Korea), Teki Cometh (Japan), and Twilight of the Warriors: Walled In (Hong Kong).
Actress Shahana Goswami was honoured with the Best Actress award for her role in Santosh, a film about a newly widowed woman who takes over her late husband’s job as a police constable and becomes involved in a murder investigation. Director Sandhya Suri was also recognised as Best New Director, surpassing filmmakers from Japan, Vietnam, and China. All We Imagine As Light, a Malayalam-Hindi production that previously made history as the first Indian film to win the Grand Prix at Cannes, follows the lives of two Kerala-born nurses navigating love and life in Mumbai. The Asian Film Awards continue to highlight the growing global recognition of Indian and South Asian cinema.
