Eight years of honouring the voices that dare to tell real stories.
Celebrate Creativity. Honour Excellence.
From short films to social media — every format, every voice, every story matters.
India's Premier Platform for Independent Filmmakers & Digital Creators
"Every story deserves a stage. Every creator deserves recognition."
The Telangana Short Film & Digital Creator Awards (TSFA) was founded in 2018 with a singular mission: to celebrate the extraordinary talent emerging from India's independent film and digital content ecosystem.
Over eight landmark editions, TSFA has grown into the most trusted and inclusive awards platform in the region, recognising excellence across 19 categories spanning short films, web series, documentaries, and digital content.
Organised by Kalaraj Media & Entertainment Pvt. Ltd., TSFA 2026 continues this legacy — bringing together filmmakers, creators, industry veterans, and audiences to celebrate the stories that define our times.
