Hi, I’m Akshan Singh. A filmmaker and storyteller with a background in film and media. I write movies, short films, ads and I enjoy being part of projects where ideas grow into something bigger. I thrive in the chaos of collaboration where small sparks grow into something unforgettable. From festivals to NGOs, from sets to creative collectives, I bring structure to vision and passion to process. For me, filmmaking isn’t just work, it’s building worlds, shaping narratives, and leaving a mark that outlives the moment.
