Fortune Pictures, is a new-age film production house, whose main aim is to create content that not only entertains but also leaves a long-lasting impact on its viewers. The team after the successful completion of MANTO (starring Nawazuddin Siddiqui & others, Directed by Nandita Das) & TADKA (starring Nana Patekar, Taapsee Pannu, Shriya Saran, Ali Fazal & others, Directed by Prakash Raj), are now rolling with their 3rd production. They, Sameer Dixit, Jatish Varma & Girish Johar, are of the firm belief that there are a million stories, across various genres & scales, waiting to be told that only need the right backing. They are on the lookout for these stories, which not only make dreams come to life but also connect with their respective audiences.

I am very comfortable with team Fortune Pictures, their content identification & curation sensibilities, are truly amazing."
