From Hisar’s Dust
to Mumbai’s Lights

Every frame I shoot carries the dust of where I come from.

The Beginning — Hisar, Haryana

A Boy Full of Stories

In the dusty lanes of Hisar, Haryana, a boy discovered his first stage — not in a film school, not in a studio, but on the streets. Nukkad nataks, mime performances, stage dramas — every open space became a theater, every audience a reason to tell one more story.

While other kids rehearsed equations, he rehearsed emotions. While they memorized formulas, he memorized the way light hit a performer’s face at sundown. The stories of Haryana — its pride, its grit, its unpolished truth — were writing themselves into his bones.

The Crossroads — The Decision That Cost 4 Years of Silence

IIT or Stories?
He Chose Stories.

He was an aspiring IITian. PCM. 87%. The path was laid out — engineering, a stable career, the pride of a Haryanvi family.

But something burned louder than ambition. He dropped IIT preparation and enrolled in Journalism & Mass Communication.

The cost? His father didn’t speak to him for four years.

Four years of silence. Four years of proving that stories weren’t a distraction — they were a destination. Four years of carrying the weight of a decision that everyone around him said was wrong.

The Obsession — A Writer Lost in Words

The Boy Who Missed
Metro Stations

In those early years, something possessed him. A notebook. A pen. And an inability to stop writing.

He would miss his metro station because a character was mid-sentence. He would forget about class time because a story demanded one more paragraph. The world outside blurred — the only thing in focus was the page.

This wasn’t discipline. This was obsession. The kind that doesn’t ask for permission. The kind that, years later, would become his greatest weapon — the ability to lose himself completely in a narrative until it was ready to be found by millions.

2016 – 2019 — The Independent Years

10 Films. 5 Million Views.
One Award That Changed Everything.

He directed 10+ independent short films. He crafted documentary series for Stage App — Gaama Aali Mauj and Pride Cities Haryana — bringing the stories of his homeland to screens across India.

Then came Main Diya — the film that earned him the Best Emerging Director award at the Dada Saheb Phalke International Film Festival.

The boy from Hisar was now on the theater screen. And somewhere, a father’s silence finally broke.

2021 – 2026 — The Brand Builder

15x Revenue. 1000+ Campaigns.
A Company’s IPO Story.

At LawSikho (Addictive Learning), he didn’t just make ads — he built a narrative engine. As Creative Head, he translated complex EdTech products into emotionally resonant stories that people actually wanted to watch.

15x revenue growth. 1,000+ digital campaigns. A creative team scaled from 0 to 12 members, delivering 300+ creatives per month. He led the “Pan India Superstars” campaign and shaped the brand communication for the company’s IPO journey.

He proved what he always believed: a great story isn’t just art — it’s a business multiplier.

2026 — The Next Chapter

Going Independent.
Going All In.

After a decade of proving that stories can scale businesses and move audiences, Deepak is stepping into the arena he was always destined for: feature filmmaking.

The same boy who did nukkad nataks in Hisar is now building narratives for the biggest screen. The same obsession that made him miss metro stations now drives him to create films that make audiences forget the world outside the theater.

The dust of Hisar. The lights of Mumbai. The stories in between.
This is just the beginning.
