DASTAK
Things happen that make people afraid; afraid of their own shadow, afraid for their loved ones, afraid of even the slightest clatter, afraid of even a Dastak.

My Journey
5 years ago I ventured out to tell my stories - my way.
And so, I started with only a dream and self-taught teachings from the silver screen.
The films here offer a taste of what I make. From surreal thrillers to existential comedies, with each new film I try to push myself to try new styles, themes, techniques, and ideas; seeking new challenges and opportunities to push the boundaries of what can happen in my realm of possibilities.
So sit back and journey into my mind and see the world through my eyes.
I hope you enjoy the show.
