The International Indian Film Academy Awards, popularly known as IIFA, is an annual awards ceremony for Hindi cinema. Produced by Wizcraft International Entertainment Pvt.

Instituted in 2000, the ceremony is held in different countries around the world every year.

The IIFA Utsavam is the South Indian segment of the annual IIFA Awards. The awards were introduced in 2016, around the films released in 2015. The 1st IIFA Utsavam was held on 24 and 25 January 2016 at the Gachibowli Athletic Stadium, Hyderabad, India.^[1]

The first awards were presented in 2000 at The Millennium Dome in London, United Kingdom. From then onwards, the awards have been held at locations around the world, signifying the international success of Hindi cinema. Since 2000, the event has expanded from a one-night event to a three-day celebration, hosting various events and activities relating to the Indian film industry.^[2]
