What this body of work means for your project

The range is the point: whatever you need to make, there is finished work here that shows how it will be done. How we work: fewer hand-offs, because the script, the shoot or the animation, the music and the finishing stay with one accountable team, and every collaborator is credited. See the process.

Devotional music labels, temples and singers

The devotional films show that a sacred story can reach millions when it is made as cinema around a song. Bring a bhajan, a stotram or a story, and it becomes a film your audience keeps returning to.

Questions about the portfolio

Can I see work similar to my project?

Yes. Each kind of work above links to the page that holds the films themselves. If nothing matches exactly, describe your project in the brief and we will point you to the closest films and explain how yours would differ.

Do you work with clients outside India?

Yes. Briefs, reviews and delivery all run online, and much of the audience for the studio’s English-language films is outside India. A client in another country follows the same process as a client in Guwahati.

In which languages do you make films?

Assamese, Hindi and English, with subtitles and dubbing into other languages when a project needs them.

Can I license a film from this portfolio?

Many films can be licensed for screenings, broadcast, education or streaming. The licensing page explains how; tell us which film and how you would like to use it.
