What are the questions asked in an interview for the Film and Television Institute of India (FTII) if applying for direction (films)?

One of my friends studied in FTII Pune. Let me share the information I got to know from him.

After clearing the entrance exam, you should have a basic idea of what could be asked. They usually look for your observation skills. 

• The first thing you should know is how Cinema is treated as a representation of actuality.
• You will have to be aware of the History of Cinema. Starting from the Lumiere Brothers to Edison’s films.
• Try and be your honest self. 
• Your observation on simple things like a scenic view or a day to day activity would be asked to explain in your own words.
• Do not try to exaggerate. Listen to what they are asking and answer accordingly. Avoid using any technical terminology. 
• Share your experiences with cinema. 

It is suggested to keep a positive mind and attitude. Approach it more like a conversation than an interview.
