Who benefits from our work.
Our beneficiaries are emerging South Asian filmmakers, writers, and artists across the global diaspora — creators with vital stories but limited access to funding, mentorship, and distribution.
Through our support, their work has premiered at Sundance, screened at Tribeca, earned Oscar qualification, and reached global executives at markets and festivals — outcomes that ripple outward into a more representative, more vibrant culture for the 2-billion-strong diaspora and beyond.
