If you are looking for a break from the monotonous media cycle and yearn for something new and exciting, this is for you! AniMela, is back in town from February 19 to 22 at Whistling Woods International, Goregaon. The festival had its inaugural edition in 2024, and now it’s back for round three, bigger, and better than ever before! 

AniMela features a diverse range of activities such as film screenings, exhibitions, conferences, and workshops.  It is organised by the Aniverse and Visual Arts Foundation, which is a not-for-profit organisation working to build a platform for budding AVGC-XR (animation, visual effects, gaming, and extended reality) artistes. For this, the festival has partnered with the Annecy International Animation Film Market. Selected candidates also get a chance to present their creations in Annecy, France.
