Yantra Pictures Announces Five‑Film Slate for 2026‑27
Indian producer, author and entrepreneur Maansi Guptey, who previously produced the popular Marathi drama Colorphool, announced that her banner Yantra Pictures will launch an ambitious slate of five feature films scheduled for the 2026‑27 period. Guptey stated that the studio’s vision is to build a storytelling studio that creates meaningful, commercially engaging cinema across languages and platforms. The near‑term focus includes expanding the slate with feature films, premium OTT content, and adaptations of powerful literary works, while also developing an ecosystem that links storytelling with lifestyle and culture through various creative ventures.
She emphasized that Yantra Pictures will back projects that are both entertaining and socially relevant, seeking stories that are emotionally rich, character‑driven, and rooted in authentic human experiences. Genres under consideration span romance, drama, thrillers, and socially relevant narratives, with the guiding question for each project being: “Will this story make someone feel something?”
In addition to the five‑film slate, Yantra Pictures is already developing a Malayalam‑language project and is actively exploring collaborations with filmmakers, writers, and actors from the South Indian region. The aim is to produce culturally authentic content that resonates with audiences across different regions, reinforcing the belief that great stories transcend language.
The press release, dated Thursday, July 9, 2026, at 11:07:30, includes a disclaimer that the release comes under an arrangement with NRDPL and that PTI takes no editorial responsibility for the content. Guptey hinted that further major announcements from Yantra Pictures are forthcoming.
