Hi, I’m Vaibhav Sawant—a filmmaker who loves telling stories through video. I started with a Mechanical Engineering background, but I found my true passion in crafting engaging visuals, editing immersive narratives, and producing content that connects with audiences. Over the years I’ve led Cricbuzz’s video production, edited interviews with cricket legends, and produced travel and documentary content. I thrive in end-to-end production—from concept to release—building teams, shaping stories, and delivering high-quality videos for apps, websites, and broadcast.
