Awards can help to get your screenplay produced, Neha Srivastava. It's not just about winning contests though. It's also about capitalizing on the wins. You can capitalize on the wins by contacting producers, directors, companies, etc. and telling them you won. If you win one of the bigger contests (Academy Nicholl Fellowship, PAGE International Screenwriting Awards, Final Draft Big Break, etc.), people in the film industry see that as more impressive than if you win a smaller contest.

Ok. Thanks that is good advice. I do have a platinum Remi. As I am extremely unsure about my writing, so these awards are a good validation.

You're welcome, Neha Srivastava. Congratulations on the platinum Remi and your other success! Are you planning to pitch the script soon?

Yes I have but I think my pitches aren’t good. Am unable to convey the story in 5 minutes. Even my written pitch is bad. Lost case

I don't think it's a lost case, Neha Srivastava. Here's a free webinar about pitching: https://www.stage32.com/webinars/Pitching-Tips-from-the-Pros-Your-Bluepr... Jason Mirch (Stage 32's Director of Development Services) hosted it.
