Who headed the feature film jury of Indian Panorama 2026?
- A.Himanshu Sekhar Khatua
- B.Madhur Bhandarkar
- C.Leena Yadav
- D.Aditya Dhar
Correct answer
Explanation
The correct answer is Madhur Bhandarkar, the National Film Award-winning director and producer, who headed the 12-member feature film jury that chose the 25 feature films for Indian Panorama 2026. Option A, Himanshu Sekhar Khatua, is the wrong half of the pair: the director and educationist headed the six-member non-feature jury, which selected 20 non-feature films out of 358 entries. Option C, Leena Yadav, directed ‘Becoming’, the Ladakhi film that opens the non-feature section, and so was a selected filmmaker rather than a juror. Option D, Aditya Dhar, directed ‘Dhurandhar’, the opening feature film, and likewise sat on no jury. Keep the two chairpersons together in revision, since questions often swap the feature and non-feature juries. For the record, the feature package itself holds twenty Indian Panorama titles plus the five mainstream films.
