Personal details
- Professions: Director, Writer
Sandeep Kewlani—man, the guy’s a bit of a maverick in Bollywood. Not your average, by-the-numbers director who plays it safe. He just barrels in with stories that actually pack a punch, you know? His first crack at directing, ‘Sky Force’, wasn’t just another film clogging up the multiplex. Nah, it actually turned heads—critics were into it, people bought tickets, and the visuals? Wild. None of that cookie-cutter stuff—he went big, and it paid off. But honestly, it’s not like the dude’s just good with a camera. He writes too—and not the sort of writing that makes you check your watch every ten minutes. His scripts for ‘Sky Force’, ‘Runway 34’, and ‘Bholaa’ hit hard. Real emotion, actual stakes, and characters that don’t sound like they’re reading from a teleprompter. There’s this intensity to his stuff, like he’s not afraid to push people or stories into messy territory. It feels like he actually cares about what he’s putting out, which is rare as hell. He’s also got skin in the production game—co-founded GoodKarma Films. Not some fly-by-night company, either. They’re out here trying to shake things up, making movies that don’t just blend into the crowd. The guy’s clearly in love with cinema, but he’s not stuck in the past—he wants to tell stories that matter now, not just recycled tropes. Some filmmakers chase trends. Sandeep? He’s out here setting them.
Sandeep’s head? Always buzzing with wild movie ideas—he’s got this itch to make a film that nobody’s even dared to dream up yet. We’re not talking about your run-of-the-mill drama or some tired remake. Nah, this guy’s obsessed with cinema, the whole shebang—he’s watched all the classics, lives for that thrill you get when the lights go down and the screen flashes to life. He’s convinced he’s got something special up his sleeve, like he could shake things up and leave all those so-called “visionaries” in the dust. The way he talks about movies, it’s like he’s got celluloid running through his veins. Sandeep genuinely feels like he’s born for this; he wants to put his stamp on the silver screen, and you can just tell he’s not going to settle for anything less than epic. The guy’s dreaming big—maybe even too big, but hey, that’s what makes it interesting.
“You cannot lose until you quit!”—honestly, that line just slaps. It’s the kind of mantra you hear in those gritty sports movies, where the underdog keeps getting knocked down but just keeps standing up, bruised and stubborn as hell. The whole movie kind of revolves around that idea: don’t throw in the towel, even when the universe is basically giving you every reason to. The main character, yeah, they’re not a superhero or some genius—they’re just relentless. You watch them get wrecked, over and over, but every time they get back up, it’s like, dang, maybe that’s what winning actually looks like. The plot’s all about pushing through failures, chasing that glimmer of hope, and not letting setbacks define you. There’s sweat, a lot of yelling, some broken dreams, but also that wild, electric feeling of maybe—just maybe—pulling off the impossible. It’s messy, ugly, and totally worth watching just for that raw, real energy.
