Excel Entertainment co-founder Ritesh Sidhwani is ready to be a part of the guest list on the 79th EE BAFTA Film Awards 2026, scheduled to happen in London on February 22. The BAFTAs, hosted by the British Academy of Film and Television Arts, remain one among the largest nights in world cinema, drawing top names from across industries.
Ritesh Sidhwani to attend BAFTA 2026 as Excel Entertainment’s Boong earns nomination
This 12 months, Sidhwani will reportedly be attending alongside a star-studded mixture of Indian and international faces. The guest line-up is claimed to incorporate Alia Bhatt and Riz Ahmed, while Hollywood heavyweights like Leonardo DiCaprio, Michael B. Jordan and Cillian Murphy are also expected to be present. Other names mentioned among the many attendees include Marc Robinson, Adam Willis, Lauren Evans, Lee Groombridge, Nicolas Gonda and Charlie Noble.
Sidhwani’s presence on the ceremony comes at a time when Indian production houses are increasingly gaining recognition on global platforms. For Excel Entertainment, the BAFTA buzz is much more relevant this 12 months because the banner’s film Boong has reportedly secured a nomination within the Best Children’s and Family Film category.
With the BAFTAs often serving as a key stage for international networking and industry highlight, Sidhwani’s attendance is being viewed as one other indicator of Excel Entertainment’s expanding global ambitions. The nomination for Boong further adds weight to the moment, signalling how Indian-backed projects are steadily finding space in prestigious international award circuits.
