Press Release – 17 September 2026

Cinesta, a video production studio headquartered in Surat, announced on 17 September 2026 that it is expanding its production practice across India. The expansion covers seven broad service areas: corporate films and documentaries, commercials and advertisements, entertainment and narrative films, short‑form digital content for platforms such as Instagram and YouTube, live‑event coverage and streaming, animation, and visual effects.

The studio, which has more than 12 years of industry experience, continues to operate from its Surat base and now maintains a corporate office in Mumbai. It was founded by Aman Sukhadia and Yug Italiya; Sukhadia remains the chief executive officer. Cinesta collaborates closely with Saadho Media, a Surat‑based branding and content agency also founded by the two partners, to provide brand‑strategy and campaign‑direction services.

Service Model

Cinesta follows a three‑stage production workflow: pre‑production (research, scripting, budgeting), production (shoot), and post‑production (editing, sound design, visual effects). The studio emphasizes that keeping all stages within an integrated workflow ensures continuity of creative direction from concept to final delivery.

Client Portfolio

The studio’s client base spans multiple sectors, including jewellery and retail (Kalamandir Jewellers, Verma Jewellers, House of Rings, Saffron Star Jewels), education (P P Savani University), manufacturing (Hardten, Mantra), infrastructure (KP Group), financial services (Angel One), government institutions (Gujarat Police, Surat’s cyber crime cell), community organisations (Southern Gujarat Chamber of Commerce and Industry, Terapanth Mahasabha, SRK Knowledge Foundation), and others such as Swastik Oil and Fostaa.

Notable Projects

  • Commercial Campaigns: Produced the “Saj Dhaj Ke” campaign for Kalamandir Jewellers and other advertising work for jewellery and retail brands.
  • Entertainment: Created the Gujarati musical short film Hari Tu (2022), which earned three festival awards, and the short film Bhagwan, now available on Disney+ Hotstar and Amazon Prime Video.
  • Public‑Interest Communication: Developed the “Cyber Sanjivani” campaign for Surat’s cyber crime cell to educate residents about online fraud and digital safety.

Market Context

The announcement comes as organisations across India increasingly integrate video into websites, social media, advertising, corporate communication, investor presentations, events, and public‑awareness initiatives, driving demand for production partners capable of handling multiple formats under a single ecosystem.
