In a bold and exciting move, renowned ad filmmaker Prasoon Pandey is stepping into the world of feature films. Known for his iconic commercials and a trophy shelf stacked with international honors like the Cannes Lions and Clio Awards, Pandey will make his directorial debut with a mass-market, contemporary mythological film — a fresh spin on a genre deeply rooted in Indian storytelling.
The yet-untitled film is scripted by Vaibhav Vishal, celebrated for his work on Scam 1992, and promises to blend modern narrative techniques with timeless cultural themes. If Pandey’s ad work is any indication, viewers can expect a visually rich, emotionally sharp story that balances substance with spectacle.
Backing this ambitious project are MovieVerse Studios (helmed by Aditya Pittie and Vivek Krishnani) and Ellipsis Entertainment (headed by Tanuj Garg and Atul Kasbekar) — two production houses known for striking that elusive balance between commercial appeal and cinematic credibility. The lead cast is still under wraps, but buzz suggests the film will feature top-tier talent from the Hindi film industry.
As Indian audiences show increasing love for rooted-yet-relevant storytelling, Prasoon Pandey’s feature debut couldn’t come at a better time. With a mythological lens and a modern heartbeat, this film is set to challenge genre norms and possibly redefine what mainstream mythological cinema looks like in India.
