I am the writer and director of films at Gauss Weyl Film Productions, Munich, Germany. I am also the Founder of Aks-e-Khaam Films.
I am a multimedia artist. For me, it all started with poetry. Then I branched out into other forms of expression as well. I have worked as a poet/writer, director and photographer. I started with fashion campaigns and fashion films.
Currently I am writing two web series and launching a couple of youtube channels. I am an avid student of human behaviour. The way humans come to be, the way we learn, grow, befriend, antagonise, dream, cheat, help, laugh, cry and the way we leave our bodies. One of my ultimate fascinations are human beings themselves. All of these thoughts and emotions which shape our mental realities have to be conveyed to each-other.
We use stories to tell each other about our day, our problems, our anxieties, our fears, our dreams, pretty much anything. Stories whether true or fabricated, they have a great impact on human beings. I fell in love with film since as a medium to tell stories as it appeals to multiple senses of humans to tell a story. I am transitioning from fashion to ad films and web series at the moment.
In the past, I have worked as Art Director at Punjab Information Technology Board (PITB) as Videographer/Editor/Photographer.

How did you get involved in film?
I started with theater. Slowly I moved to other forms of expression. Then I went into fashion campaigns as a photographer and eventually fashion films.
Which film did you enjoy doing the most?
There are many. It’s hard to choose one. As we grow older. Films just like books evolve with our understanding within our minds. But Lord of the rings is still one of my favorites ever made.
Tell us about your venture Aks-e-Kham?
I started Aks-e-Khaam as a production company which offered services in fashion, corporate and Ad campaigns.
How do you find inspiration for writing?
It keeps on changing with time and the phase I am in at that moment in time. Sometimes it’s something which happened to me or someone around me. Sometimes it’s a piece of news or a piece of art. Sometimes it’s the streets. Sometimes it’s people.
Who are your favorite directors?
Martin Scorsese
Lars Von Tier
Darren Aronofsky
