Q1. What made you realize you wanted to be an actor?
Raghav Binani: I did not know anybody in the Indian Cinema industry. I used to Google the names of casting directors, look, for auditions on social media and visit production houses and offices which worked in the line of production. I worked for
one year in the Advertising agency. I’ve loved film since before I can remember, and your studio’s films are among my favorites. Honestly, I got into film editing because of
you. Being behind the scenes and being a part of that magic—even in the smallest.
of ways—is an amazing feeling, and I would be so honored to bring my knowledge
to work here. Additionally, I do my best work as part of a team, and watching your.
behind-the-scenes production videos on your website clarified that you value
collaboration and movement across roles.
Q2. What was your inspiration behind taking the acting industry?
Raghav Binani: Then I was in college, I felt I wanted to entertain people and I felt to give myself a shot. I really loved watching films, so I thought I would become an actor. I felt
important to really work here.
Q3. What kind of genre of films works well in the market especially in the present scenario?
Raghav Binani: I think a hero who is larger than well if you are looking in that perspective. Also I think family drama and comedy. “Having worked with film crews in the past, I am
well versed in interacting with a diverse array of personalities and know how to tailor my communications to different types of people. I like to be transparent and avoid miscommunication at all costs, so I try to have all important conversations in person, and I jot down any key takeaways at the end to ensure we’re on the same page. Also, in the fast-paced world of film, I find that you need to be ready for anything, so my phone is on me 24/7. That way, anyone, anywhere can get to me if they have a crucial need.”
Q4.How do you promote your film so that people watch it?
Raghav Binani: The marketing does most of the work. Making the posters and promoting it. But I definitely share it on my social media. So that people watch it.
Q5. What advice would you like to give young filmmakers?
Raghav Binani: “I did not go to a film school I went to the film. Be practical and extraordinary as well as unique. I just love Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind. It combines so
many genres—sci-fi, romance, comedy, drama—in a really clever, memorable way. The films that matter to me are interesting and creative, but also enjoyable and accessible. Great films need to appeal to a lot of people so that they can have an impact, and I feel like Eternal Sunshine really did that. I can watch it again and again and keep discovering new things.”

Ultimately, I want to be a producer, but until then, I want to keep moving forward and using my creativity to support great films.”
