Media veteran and creative entrepreneur Sunil Doshi has partnered with Rainshine Entertainment to create Manzar Studios. The content studio will focus on bringing global stories to Indian audiences along with creating content locally.
The studio announced its acquisition of remake rights of high-concept IPs such as At the End of the Tunnel and 4X4; a glimpse into its robust content line-up for the year.
Manzar’s focus will be to trans-create and adapt these contemporary stories for India as feature films, series/shows, animated content, and more. It aims to curate and distribute accolade-winning and celebrated foreign IP, some of which would have premiered at prestigious film festivals and other compelling platforms.
Manzar Studios director Doshi said, “Stories have always fascinated me, and believe in each story there is something for everyone. The expert team at Rainshine and I are thrilled to see our collective passion of telling stories with a purpose come to life with Manzar Studios. Manzar means sight, a view or a scene; and we aim to bring globally renowned concepts along with creating unique stories locally to our viewers. Curation and distribution will also be key focus areas for us at Manzar. We aim to tell stories that leave behind an emotion; and for us that would be a job well done.”
Manzar’s vision is tailored to deliver content that drives one to think and leaves behind plenty to talk about. It’s key tenet is accepting propositions of the issues that we are facing today as humanity — sexuality, gender equity, disability, climate change.
