The sixth edition of Khajuraho International Film Festival (KIFF) is being organized from December 17 to 23.

This time, the KIFF will be organized in both virtual and traditional ways and will be dedicated to all those Bollywood artists who passed away in 2020. Many international celebrities are going to attend this Bollywood festival this year.

According to Raja Bundela, director of Prayas Production, the Khajuraho International Film Festival is a worthwhile effort to save the world heritage of cinema. Comedy films will be screened in five Tapara talkies at this film festival. A special program will be organized to welcome the guests. The festival will be accompanied by dialogue sessions and other cultural performances. Apart from that, an animal fair will be organized this year. KIFF Festival shows the beauty of the local language, culture, society, and tourism. The purpose of organizing this festival is to recognize and give talented film artists of Bundelkhand an international platform to showcase their skills and brilliance. A large number of vernacular films are also screened here.

KIFF is the only film festival in the country where local films are screened in Tapra Talkies. These Tapara talkies are made of tarpaulin and bamboo-balls. Earlier, when there was no multiplex or theatres, people used to enjoy films in Tapara talkies. Therefore, to continue this tradition, KIFF films are also shown in Tapara talkies.
