If you want to become a film director in India, without a film school, without industry connections, and without waiting for someone to hand you a budget, this is the book that shows you how.

Ashik Kumar Satheesh directed Kerala's first iPhone feature film over five years. Without film school. Without a large crew. Or a studio. He finished it. He submitted it to festivals. He sold it to OTT. He did it for Rs. 5 lakhs.

The Indian Indie Film is a practical film direction and production guide for beginners. The only one written from inside the Indian indie industry, not borrowed from Hollywood.

Inside this book:
- A step-by-step blueprint for low-budget filmmaking, from story development to post-production, written for first-time directors.

- How to make a micro-budget film for Rs. 5 lakhs on a smartphone, and avoid the mistakes that stop first-timers from finishing.
- Film direction essentials. The dos and don'ts of shooting, what you need and what you don't, from pre-production through to post.
- How to build your story and produce your first feature without stars, VFX, or extravagant budgets.
- How to submit to film festivals and navigate OTT distribution in India, including how to get your film on Amazon Prime and reach international audiences.

This is not theory. This is the documented process of a self-taught Indian filmmaker who condensed five years of learning into 184 pages for aspiring filmmakers who are starting out.

Rated 4.6/5 by 60+ verified reviewers. Used by filmmakers across India as a first practical guide to independent filmmaking.
