The National Film Awards are set to break their decade-long tradition this year. For the first time, the prestigious ceremony is expected to head out of New Delhi, with Gujarat likely to host the 72nd edition.  According to PTI, the awards will be held in Gujarat's Ekta Nagar on September 22, marking the first time in the history of the National Film Awards that the ceremony will be conducted outside Delhi.

President Droupadi Murmu is expected to make her arrival in Gujarat later this month. She is reportedly expected to head to Ekta Nagar to present the 72nd National Film Awards.
