DAM 999 Movie Website

director's note

DAM999 was a dream which went on the floor in the year 2011. The movie became the first cinema from India which entered the mainstream Oscars and garnered 5 selections in 3 categories. Inspired by real-life incidents, the film focused on nine characters who are constantly at tiff with their emotions and desires. DAM999 proved to be the best platform to explore my abilities as a Director and a Producer and gave me an excellent insight into the industry.
As we celebrate our 10th year, I invite all of you to be a part of our extraordinary journey with me and the movie crew, without whom this was not possible. We will be bringing some exciting webinars, panel discussions and one to one interview with the team and more. Re-live the nostalgia with us.
