Co-Founder & Producer

Mar 2013Present · 13 yrs

  • Everyone has a story to tell. And we are listening.
  • On life’s “raasta” (path or the way, in Hindi), the most important lesson taught is that everyone and everything comes with a story: a rickety bridge across a valley, a tour guide helping people across secluded terrains - for decades, or even a dream of a different tomorrow. Every one of these stories has the potential to revolutionize something, no matter who or what the protagonist is. If you have a story that needs telling and can keep us in our seats to the end – we would love to help you tell it to the world.
  • At Raasta Films, we are passionate about storytelling through film. Here, imagination is allowed to run its course across lives and parallel worlds. All the wonderful technology developed over the years is put to good use to give form to what were till that moment, mere ideas in the mind.
