It's one more feather in the cap of director Ameer. His movie Raam has been selected for the screening at the famous Cyprus International Film Festival which is beginning on 25th March.

It is the only Indian movie selected to compete for the Golden Aphrodite Award being presented for the best film in the festival.

Ameer says, 'after Sivaji Ganesan's Veerapandiya Kattabomman in 1960, it is Raam which has been selected for screening at the awards category of an international filmfest.'

Ameer would be leaving to Cyprus to take part in the festival, which would begin on 25th March. Raam would be screened on all three days of the festival. 'Raam was never made keeping in mind these awards. Now, the recognition has made me more responsible and I should live up to expectation', he adds.
