About Us
Subhojit Dasgupta is an out-of-the-box creative guy to watch out
for. He is a Creative consultant and
Advisor to several media production houses,
national as well as international.
Be it the Indian film industry (Bollywood as well as
regional films in India) or Hollywood, television or
theatre, dance or info-tainment, he has the
right creative solutions and unusual ideation skills for
your creative predicaments.
His aim is to create a new brand of
entertainment. One that will speak directly to
your soul, drawing to
sensory enlightenment, a sort of deep mental
stimulation in a direction hitherto unexplored and introducing
new thoughts and ideals through good story-telling.
He is constantly on the move, looking out for new creative collaborations in theatre, films etc.
What We Offer
An Entertainment Renaissance – that has been uppermost on
his mind for quite some time.
His USP is that he can co-relate anything to something so
different that one is forgiven for thinking that he might miss
the mark … but he doesn’t, much like Stephen Dubner and Steven
Levitt.
When Alyque Padamsee approached him, Subhojit was required to blend
his innate Tantric wisdom in the Shakespearean classic 'Macbeth' to justify the portrayal of Lady Macbeth as
a character of unbridled sensuality and how she calls upon her own doom. It also ended up answering several unanswered questions in the original Shakespearean classic. Such a theatrical blend has never been explored on
stage. This theatrical production successfully created a buzz
with people sitting up and taking notice of such a new and
rivetting interpretation to a Shakespearan classic.
From creative shows, musicals, film scripts and the works,
his repertoire covers them all. Each production stands
out for having his unique stamp, making one wonder how
he does it when such ideas would not occur to the average mind.
And for this he gives full credit to his Tantric leanings.
Tantra has opened up his mind in more ways than one, and his
advancements in Tantric learning only mirrored his advancements
in the world of media and entertainment. It all might
seem a little mad to the layperson, but there is definitely a
method behind his creative zeal.
He is keen to work with like-minded and maybe even not so
like-minded people (as he always says, if everyone’s agreeing
all the time then how does a project move forward?) as he has
done with Subhash Ghai for Kisna and Alyque Padamsee for
Macbeth.
Where We Deliver
If you’ve seen the Matrix Trilogy you will get a glimpse
of what we can deliver - an unique idea or concept with great commercial potential and entertainment to a large section of the global audience. Matrix – an
entertaining sci-fi flick featuring Keanu Reeves, Laurence Fishbourne and Carrie-Anne Moss that spoke about human misconception
of reality.
Subhojit can sense a parallel between the concept of
this film and the philosophy of the Vedic scriptures.
To him, the Matrix program is analogous to the Maya of
Vedanta, the illusion that is perceived by the senses
as the material world. In explaining Maya, he
refers to the example of the rope and the snake in
Vedanta. As long as one mistakes a rope for a snake,
one is frightened and reacts to the rope as if it were
a real snake. When one realizes that what one is
seeing is only a rope...one laughs. Similarly, as long
as one is engrossed in the ignorance of relative
consciousness, the world is indeed quite "real". Only
with the dawning of true knowledge does this illusion
fall apart.
Similarly, he proposes 'Yoga Vashishta' as a
concept. Though the 'Yoga Vashishta' has always been a part of the
heritage, it is only in the last two decades that this
concept has gained global popularity and western
researchers are trying to prove its worth
scientifically.
According to him, "Yoga Vashishta can also be a
creative mode of expression through dance, layered
with musical 'Vashishtan sounds' and this
creative interpretation would hold true without
offending its intrinsic value, and be entertaining as well".
Mission Statement
This vision has been a part of his life ever since he
started reasoning things out for himself. His immense love and
passion for his India has
enabled him to advance his soul in leaps and bounds. He has
transformed this love and passion into a driving need to spread
esoteric knowledge and wisdom through entertainment.
If you resonate with some of the ideas mentioned above and would like to
benefit from and create path-breaking creative
productions, then so don’t hesitate to
contact Subhojit Dasgupta for any creative venture that you may
have in mind.
