About Chetak Screen Awards 2026
To restore the credibility and prestige once associated with film honours, The Indian Express Group has revived Chetak Screen Awards, where winners are selected purely on merit and performance, following a rigorous evaluation by the newly formed Screen Academy.
This non-profit collective of 53 acclaimed filmmakers, artistes and cultural voices serves as a trusted body responsible for choosing the nominees and winners for the Chetak Screen Awards, ensuring decisions are made solely on merit.
To uphold rigour and consistency, a structured evaluation framework has been developed by Dr Priya Jaikumar, Chair of Cinema and Media Studies at the University of Southern California, guiding members through a fair and transparent voting process.
The Screen Academy comprises some of the most respected names in Indian cinema, including Sriram Raghavan, Kabir Khan, Rima Das, Resul Pookutty, and Vidya Balan, among others.
