After the 2006 Thai coup d'état , the government installed by the military-run Council for National Security reduced the budget for the film festival by two thirds from 180 million baht to 60 million baht . As a result of the cuts , the TAT broke its management contract with Festival Management , and then postponed the 2007 edition of the festival from January to July . With a focus on Asian cinema the resulting festival was a lower-key affair than in previous years , though it did host a visit by Indian actress Hema Malini , who was the subject of a retrospective program
