The Puranas call them the ballet dancers of heaven, the Vedas a personification of beauty.
An eternal symbol of grace, timelessness and inspiration - it was the Apsaras who wielded power so potent that even the Gods stood mesmerised with their ethereal dance and music. Symbolising excellence, grandeur, and radiance, the Apsara is the only word that does justice to this ultimate honour. An honour descended from the stars, for the stars.
Presenting the Apsara - A Celestial Tribute for the Truly Divine
This finely crafted statuette has been exclusively designed and sculpted by Tanishq. Tall at 250mm and weighing 900gms, the 22-karat gold plated Apsara has been inspired by the rich heritage of one of India's most treasured possessions - the Ajanta and Ellora caves. The designing of the Apsara may have started with a piece of paper and a pencil, but to capture the essence of what truly constitutes an award of this caliber, we need to go back in time. The truth is creating a trophy fit for a winner is no easy task. The trophy has to capture the spirit of the recipient; it has to be an embodiment of his boundless creativity and his undying perseverance. A winner is someone who is constantly innovating. Someone who doesn’t follow the beaten path; rather he charts his own course. The unknown doesn’t scare him and he believes in reaching out to the beyond- reaching out to make his dreams come true. Thus, came the first element of the Apsara - the human form reaching for the stars.
An award that is truly one of a kind, the Apsara Film & Television Producers Guild Awards is the most respected of all film awards. The FPGIA is a prestigious award given by the film fraternity to the film fraternity. Akin to the Oscars, the Award has acquired a distinguished place of it’s own.
The first Apsara Awards ceremony held on 29th May 2004 was a complete success. The response was tremendous - what with the colourful presence of artists and performers from all over the world.
