FILM FESTIVALS
Amit is a board member for UK Asian Film Festival and has also been associated with Cambridge Film Festival since 2022.
I started as a 2nd assistant in an international production The Road Home by Rahul Gandotra. The film earned a nomination in top ten Live Action Shorts for Oscars (2011). Later I worked as a Chief AD & Post Supervisor for Luv Ranjan where I managed multi-star cast, multi-locations film shoots right from pre-production through post release campaigns. I was actively involved in all stages of film making, multitasking and working closely with the Director and Producers.
Subsequently, I directed an episode for one of the very first web series in India – Life Sahi Hai produced by Luv Films. Currently I am developing my slate of feature films beginning with Crown.
