      A production house synonymous with the Indian Film Industry, Dharma Productions can be credited with not only some of India's biggest cult films like Kabhi Khushi Kabhi Gham and My Name is Khan but also it's success in turning a page and promoting young writers and directors to produce films that are ground breaking for Indian cinema like Wake Up Sid and Kapoor & Sons among others.

The experience was structurally very different from the International projects I had been on prior, teams are smaller, work goes beyond what the role usually requires and I soon found myself learning how to multitask and take up more responsibility while maintaining the same standard on all tasks. I was able to use the organisational skills I had picked up to make sure all the work was achieved at a high standard. I believe this project allowed me to push myself to learn and achieve more than I would have expected. I had the good fortune of working on location which taught me how to shoot and produce amidst the pandemic and I believe this has broadened my skillset in terms of working with new health and safety guidelines while ensuring efficiency, better organisation, coordination, and communication. I was also effective in facilitating visa & carnet papers for international stunt crew and their equipment.

      Yeh Ballet is a Netflix Original produced by Roy Kapur Films and directed by Sooni Taraporevala who is known for screenplays like The Namesake and Mississippi Masala. The project was based in Mumbai and shot very efficiently in a 40 day schedule. It was a huge learning on the importance of balance between scheduling and budgeting.
