As per reports, the 53rd edition of IFFI will pay tribute to at least 17 icons of Indian cinema – including composer-singer Bappi Lahiri, singers Lata Mangeshkar, Bhupinder Singh and KK, and filmmaker Tarun Majumdar — by screening their most memorable works during the festival.
The report further added that the organisers will screen the film Disco Dancer, which made Lahiri’s music a rage across India. Meanwhile, to pay homage to Lata Mangeshkar, Amitabh Bachchan and Jaya Bachchan-starrer film, Abhimaan will be screened. Bhool Bhulaiyaa will be screened to pay homage to singer KK.
