(Studio) — Who we are
A house of dreamers
Dreamlane is an independent production house making feature films and short films with cinematic ambition and an unmistakably Indian soul.
We started Dreamlane with a simple belief: the most local stories make the most universal films.
Dreamlane began with a group of filmmakers who loved Indian cinema in all its forms: the parallel cinema of the 70s, the regional new waves and the bold independents of today. We wanted to build a home where those traditions could meet.
Today we develop, produce and distribute films across languages and formats. We partner with first-time directors and seasoned auteurs, and with studios, streamers and festivals in India and abroad.
Every project starts the same way: with a story we can’t stop thinking about.
(01) — What we believe
Three principles
Rooted
Our stories come from the specific textures of India — its languages, rituals, streets and silences. Specific is universal.
Fearless
We back new voices and unusual forms. If a film could only be made by us, we want to make it.
Crafted
From script to sound mix, we obsess over the details audiences feel but never see.

From a spark to the silver screen
A full-service production house. We stay with every film from the first page to the final premiere.

Development
We find the story worth telling — nurturing scripts with writers, building the world, and assembling the creative team around a clear vision.

Pre-Production
Casting, location scouting across India, production design, scheduling and budgeting — every frame is planned before the camera rolls.
- 03
Production
Experienced crews, cinema-grade cameras and an obsessive eye for craft. On set, we protect the director's vision and the actors' truth.

Post-Production
Edit, colour, VFX, sound design and score — shaped in-house with trusted collaborators until the film feels inevitable.

Distribution
Festival strategy, sales, theatrical and streaming partnerships that carry our films to audiences in India and around the world.
