South Indian cinema, especially, is a hotbed of action. South India 's cinematic talent has given us so much to celebrate. Saluting the prowess of all those who make cinema gripping, gritty and grand and recognizing and felicitating the finest independent cinema from South India The Lux Sandal Southscope Cine Awards 2010 will be held at the HICC (Hyderabad International Convention Centre), Hyderabad on September 19, 2010.
Announcing this at a Press Meet organized in city on Monday, Mr. Moorthy Sreenivasulu, M.D. & Publisher, Southscope said, "We want to honour the originality and excellence of filmmakers, actors, technicians and artists across the four South Indian film industries viz. Telugu, Tamil, Malayalam and Kannada." Various Film Stars Rima Kallingal and Shammu also spoke on the occasion and disclosed the nominations from Malayalam film industry.
The theme of the awards is 'South is One'. Elaborating on the same, he said that breaking cultural barriers is something the South Indian film industry can teach the world.
