Overview
About Me
If I have to describe myself in three words then i will say " WARRIOR , KIND , INDEPENDENT ".
I am an extremely creative and passionate award winning Indian Filmmaker / Actor / Post Production Supervisor / Executive Producer and CEO / Founder / Director of CINEAKASH PRODUCTIONS Pvt. Ltd. ( A Film Production House and Post Production Facility registered with ministry of corporate affairs, government of India and recognized as rising startup by DPIIT, ministry of commerce and industry, government of India ) which is headquartered at Mumbai, India and has corporate office in Ranchi, India.
I have received 60+ Awards and Nominations globally and have successfully accomplished 250+ Projects from all over the world. Some of my Clients are United Nations, ICRC Geneva, CBS, Warner Brothers, Virgin Hotels, NYU, UCLA, Nissan, Toyota, Minerva, Paradox etc. I am CG Design and Illustration Supervisor in India's first ever live action film on dinosaurs named " Rajasaur " and Motion Graphics Supervisor in 95th Oscar Shortlisted and American Critics Choice Award Winner Film " Bad Axe ". I have worked as VFX, CGI, DI and Animation Supervisor in many feature films, commercials, web series, short films etc. mostly from Hollywood, North Hollywood and European Film Union, many of which are available on Amazon Prime Video, Netflix, Tubi, Disney Hotstar, iTunes etc. and got screened in very famous film festivals like TIFF, SXSW etc. Also, I have worked with famous social media influencers like Nathan Doan, John, Gaurav Kapoor etc. My company VFX teams have worked in world renowned films like Bahubali, KGF, Expendables, Avengers, Fast and Furious etc. I am the Co Producer and Associate Producer in Hollywood Feature Films " You are Hired " and " Meathook " respectively. Also, I am Executive Producer in Canadian Film " The Big Fold ".
I acted in some Bengali feature films, my own films and other independent films. My very first film as a Director and Producer A POOR SMUGGLER went for Guinness World Records and have received multiple awards and nominations globally and featured in News18 India, News11, Dainik Jagran, Dainik Bhaskar, The Youth, Hindustan Times, Times of India and many other famous platforms. Also, Hollywood Singer and Rapper " Harmomy Blossom and " Dissinotra " have worked in that project. Total Budget for the film was merely 200 USD and yeah that made it very unique and talk of the town. My another film YOUTUBE BABA featured famous Youtubers and also won many awards and nominations internationally.
Also, I have directed and co produced a music video NOTHING IN THE WORLD featuring famous Hollywood Rapper " Chubby Jag " and Chris Brown's Audio Engineer also worked in it. Song got recorded in renowned Robert Lang Studios and have received millions of views on SoundCloud and listed in top 10 for 3 consecutive months by many famous Radio Channels of USA. I am the first and only young filmmaker of my home state Jharkhand whose projects represented INDIA in multiple international film festivals.
Born and brought up in Ranchi but currently living in Mumbai. Honestly, I always had love for storytelling or filmmaking and acting but i discovered that absolutely when i was in High School. At the start of my career around August 2016, I did some amateur theater plays with my university drama group and made couple of inspirational and comedy short films with an African-Indian Film Production Startup named INDIGHA / DUNAMIS and worked in them as an Actor, Writer and Director. I started my own Film Production Company on 4th December 2016 consisting of some native and international Artists and Technicians under the banner of which I started making Films, Music Videos etc. To arrange funds for my Productions, I started taking very small projects to edit and color grade. Gradually after getting sufficient experience and knowledge, I started hiring editors and colorists and begin to supervise the contracts. Gradually, i expanded the team and services list and with persistent efforts, improvisation, honesty and great communication i reached the point where i incorporated my company and earned Rising Startup Certificate from Government of India being 1st Successful Film and Entertainment Startup in the state and 34th in the country of 1.5 billion people. Keep in mind that, I never did any formal course or fancy degree in any of the film and entertainment stream spending ton of money. I learned everything through YouTube Channels, Udemy Courses and my own mistakes.
I worship Rocky Balboa and M.S. Dhoni as gods and I am absolute devotee of these two personalities. Whatever I am and I will become in my life will be because of Rocky Balboa and M.S. Dhoni apart from my parents and brother obviously. Two of my favorite quotes are :-
" It ain't about how hard you hit. It's about how hard you can get hit and keep moving forward, how much you can take and keep moving forward. That's how winning is done ! "
- Rocky Balboa ( Sylvester Stallone )
" Face the failure, until the failure fails to face you. "
- M.S. Dhoni
