Days after winning the National Award for the Best Film for his directorial debut Rocketry: The Nambi Effect, R Madhavan has now been appointed as the new President of the Film & Television Institute of India. The actor has replaced filmmaker Shekhar Kapur in the position.

Information & Broadcasting Minister Anurag Thakur took to X (formerly Twitter) on Friday evening to announce that Madhavan has been appointed as the new FTII President.

He wrote, "Heartiest congratulations to @ActorMadhavan ji on being nominated as President of @FTIIOfficial and Chairman of the governing council. I'm sure that your vast experience & strong ethics will enrich this institute, bring positive changes, & take it to a higher level. My best wishes to you."

Madhavan reposted Anurag's tweet and wrote in his response on X, "Thank you so very much for the honor and kind wishes @ianuragthakur Ji. I will do my very best to live up to all the expectations. (namaste emojis)".
