Jayadev Award

Jayadev Award is given to a film personality in Odisha who has contributed significantly for the Orissa Film industry. This award has been conferred on popular film directors who have been considered doyens of the industry and every year one such personality has been recognized since 1980. The awardees include all film personalities in Odisha including actors, directors and other important functionaries in film industry.

Forthright Jury Panel

The members of Jury Panel coming from all dimensions of society are very clear with the choice of films and those directors who had made such films in choosing the best for the year to give the award.

For instance, the Juries have given a verdict of not recommending any film or director to be named best for the year 2012, as in their consideration none of the films produced in Odishi language was propagating good social message or adding to the cultural richness. At the same time, they have recognized Television shows which had been best in these dimensions too.
