DK Bose

Producer: Narasimha Murthy G · Director: Sandeep Mahantesh

My first feature as producer — a theatrical Kannada release that taught me more about storytelling, schedules, and money under fire than any class ever could.

It's the film that turned the idea of "one day I'll make movies" into the practical work of actually finishing one. The lessons from DK Bose run through every project that's followed.

✎ Reveal as much (or as little) as you like — title, genre, talent, dates. Right now this is the quiet placeholder; swap when you're ready.

A new toolkit

AI & VFX for independent film.

Twenty years of engineering plus a working film practice put me in a useful spot: applying the new generative-AI and VFX toolchain to real production constraints. Used right, these tools let smaller crews tell bigger stories.

Hybrid pipelines

Generative AI + traditional VFX, working in service of the story — not replacing the storyteller.
