Additionally, VELS is in discussions with several emerging directors and actors to collaborate on a new wave of exciting films—many of which will mark the directorial debuts of fresh creative voices.

Dr. Ishari K. Ganesh, Chairman of VELS Film International, stated:

“This lineup represents our next chapter—bigger, bolder, and focused on delivering impactful storytelling. We are proud to partner with the best creative minds and bring cinema that will resonate with audiences across platforms and languages.”

With a growing library of successful films, VELS continues to strengthen its position as a full-spectrum content studio, with capabilities spanning development, production, and distribution. The company has been behind celebrated titles like Comali, Vendhu Thanindhathu Kaadu (VTK), Mookuthi Amman and LKG, which have garnered both box office success and critical acclaim.

VELS is also actively scaling up its original content creation team and building an in-house development arm for digital-first stories and pan-India collaborations.

This is a well-curated and deeply considered slate, the result of months of planning, creative development, and strategic vision. As part of our strategic evolution, we have restructured the company and brought in several valuable players across creative, production, and business functions—each playing a key role in driving the growth and long-term success of VELS. With this launch, VELS steps forward to elevate its public limited company into a formidable national studio brand.
