Sambbhav K. — Co-Founder
I craft stories that don’t just entertain — they move people and make money. My journey began when I was handpicked by Disney Star for their Star Writers Program, an elite nationwide hunt for India’s best storytellers. Mentored by Hollywood screenwriting coach David Freeman, I learned how to craft narratives that resonate globally while staying rooted in Indian emotion. Since then, I’ve written 500+ hours of television and digital content, including Wagle Ki Duniya – Nayi Peedhi Naye Kisse (Sony SAB), for which I won Best Story & Best Screenplay at the SWA Awards — India’s highest screenwriting honor (equivalent to the Emmys). My work often weaves family, humor, and socially relevant themes such as good touch/bad touch, menstruation, and disability — stories that entertain while sparking meaningful conversation. Today, as Head of Content (Microdramas) at Sooper (Hoichoi), I work at the intersection of serialized storytelling, microdramas, and scale — building content for Indian and international audiences. My work spans live-action, AI-assisted formats, and mobile-first narratives designed for high retention. I lead writers’ rooms, commission microdramas, and design 90-second stories, collaborating closely with producers to ensure content not only engages audiences but also fuels the company’s bottom line. Beyond this, I also mentor young professionals in storytelling, emotional intelligence, and personal branding, and I’ve authored a humor book that reached Amazon’s Top Lists. Key skills: Screenwriting • Content Strategy • Writers’ Room Leadership • OTT & Audio Storytelling • Mentorship • Brand Narratives.
