Igniting Creativity in Cinematic Storytelling

In the heart of Mumbai, amidst the buzz of the entertainment capital of India, Patakha Films stands as a beacon of cinematic innovation, creativity, and bold storytelling. Founded by Arati Salgaonkar and Suhas Salgaonkar, two individuals who have spent over three decades mastering the art of filmmaking and media communication, Patakha Films is more than just a production house — it’s a creative force that is redefining the way stories are told in Indian cinema.

Drawing from their vast experience in the Bollywood film industry, television, and media and entertainment sectors, the Salgaonkars have transformed their vision into a dynamic production company known for its distinct approach to filmmaking. Patakha Films is all about storytelling that resonates with audiences, creating films that are not only engaging but also thought-provoking, entertaining, and culturally relevant.

The name Patakha, which translates to "firecracker," embodies the company’s mission — to bring energy, excitement, and brilliance to every project. With a strong commitment to quality and creativity, Patakha Films produces a wide range of content that spans music videos, short films, feature films, and web content, each of which is crafted with passion, precision, and a unique vision.

A Vision Rooted in Passion and Experience

What sets Patakha Films apart from other production houses is its strong foundation in both filmmaking and strategic communication. Arati and Suhas Salgaonkar, the dynamic duo at the helm of Patakha Films, have an exceptional track record that goes beyond film production. They also manage Perception Managers, a PR agency that focuses on brand-building, media relations, and public communication. Their dual expertise in film production and strategic PR allows them to create compelling narratives for both the screen and for brands, providing a holistic approach to storytelling.

The founders’ extensive experience in Bollywood and the media industry has equipped them with a deep understanding of what makes a story impactful. Their leadership ensures that every project under the Patakha Films banner reflects their commitment to quality content, innovative storytelling, and cultural relevance.

Patakha Films believes that every project, no matter how big or small, should be infused with creativity and passion. Whether it’s a music video, short film, or full-length feature, the aim is always to create something that speaks to the audience in an authentic and meaningful way.
