Mumbai Academy of the Moving Image (MAMI), a leading institution dedicated to celebrating Indian and world cinema since 1997, today unveiled a new logo and brand identity, marking the beginning of a renewed chapter for one of India’s most influential and celebrated film organisations.

The programme will present weekly screenings on the big screen, offering sustained visibility to films that often struggle to find space within mainstream exhibition circuits.
