our story

Bandra West Pictures is a boutique content creation house that started off by producing ad films and documentaries before diving into developing and producing feature length films and content for OTT platforms. We focus on developing exciting ideas into great scripts and then supporting that content with the right teams and practises.

We have been creating niche, path breaking content for over 12 years across segments and have recently entered the Digital universe with our collaborations with Netflix & Amazon Prime.

Bandra West Pictures is helmed by Raja Krishna Menon (Creative) and Janani Ravichandran (Business) who between them bring over 20 years of cinema experience to the company.
