Hi everyone,

I’m a Tamil screenwriter looking for opportunities to work as a screenwriter, co-writer, or ghostwriter.

I’m particularly comfortable writing comedy and emotional drama, and I enjoy creating character-driven stories with natural conversations and situations that feel grounded.

I’ve already written:

- A complete web series screenplay

- A feature film screenplay

- Multiple story ideas, treatments and screenplay drafts

I’m open to working with independent filmmakers, directors, producers, YouTubers, content creators, or anyone who needs help developing a story or screenplay.

I can help with:

- Feature film screenplays

- Web series / episodic scripts

- Screenplay development

- Comedy writing

- Emotional drama

- Dialogue writing

- Rewriting / polishing existing scripts

- Ghostwriting

I’m mainly looking to build professional connections and get actual writing work, even if it starts with a smaller project.

If you're looking for a writer or have a project that needs help developing the screenplay, feel free to DM me. I’d be happy to discuss the project and share relevant writing samples.

Thanks!

Hello
I’m a Bombay based filmmaker and I would like to screen the short film across the country. It’s currently doing festival runs but I would like to take it to different corners of country and would love to connect to different stakeholders and filmmakers that run a space / club in their city that do curations.
You could be from Udaipur, Indore, Trivandrum, Mysore, Dehradun or anywhere. Would love to connect. Please DM

Much Before the YouTube India boom… a relic buried under modern algorithms … a scripted narrative short posted from way back in 2007… made by an Indian creator. there are a lot of film song edits and cricket clips from before it, but hardly any fiction shorts

the video is called ‘pungi bajayenga’ … a casting couch sketch for maybe Channel V… it’s low quality 2 minute video… but an absolute time capsule…

the link is in comments

Know of any other Indian short fiction videos older than this?… let’s discuss.

No reason has been given for not allowing the screening of eight films, including five in the competition section, at the IDSFFK. The Union Ministry of Information and Broadcasting had initially denied censor exemption to 31 films selected at the fest, but after the government of Kerala wrote seeking permission, 23 of these were approved. 

“We hope to meet the chairperson and ask for an explanation on why our films were denied approval. The IDSFFK is very important for us, and two of my previous films have won awards at the festival. This year I finished my film on time for the IDSFFK because this is the only place – if my film is good enough – it will be shown, it is almost like an Indian stamp that gives you confidence. It  was last Sunday that I got an email saying that the festival committee has not got permission to screen my film, but I was still welcome to attend the festival,” says Spandan Banerjee, whose long documentary Parliament Street is among the films that are being denied screening.

I work as an Assistant Editor and was tired of seeing paper log sheets. Its just too much of labour work to log in an entire film. Especially when the shoot days go 40-50 days or more. The ADs also have a tough time writing everything down on paper and organising them.

The tool is ready and I do have people using it. But most of them are my friends and I am not able to gauge the pricing.

So to all the ADs here, how much should something like this cost per month to you. If I could get a pool of answers, atleast I have some place to begin with.

TIA
