About

Everything to do with cinema, storytelling form and its intricate relation with human communication. I am an independent Indian film director/creative producer. My journey working in Indian cinema is highlighted with working on studio feature films and episodic series since 2016. My filmography includes working as an Associate Director to filmmaker Ashim Ahluwalia on the gangster epic 'Daddy' (2017), horror anthology 'Field Guide To Evil' (2018) by Alamo Drafthouse (US) and Netflix (India) OTT series 'Class' (2023). ‘Hauah’ (2020), my first short film, delves into the socio-cultural impact of blind mythical practices hidden in rural communities was awarded and showcased at New York Indian Film Festival (US), Jagran Film Festival (IND), Nottingham Arts Mela (UK), South Asia Short Film Festival (IND). Along with long format projects, I also dabble in advertising collaborating with brands /creative agencies to develop and helm nuanced TV commercials with the main focus to bring out impactful and aesthetically sound campaigns across the platform. Having worked with noted agencies like FCB Ulka, Ogilvy, Lowe Lintas, BBDO and many more, I have directed multiple TV/Digital commercials for major brands like Flipkart, Hotstar, Del Monte, Eureka Forbes, Maruti, Himalaya Wellness and Myntra etc. Currently, I'm developing my debut feature film 'Khoriya' (Feather Men), an Indo-Nepal co-production, which is currently in the post production stage.
