Directing
Rahul Sankrityan is an Indian film director and screenwriter working in Telugu cinema, known for blending genre storytelling with thematic ambition. Before entering mainstream filmmaking, he gained early recognition by winning a large-scale short film contest that saw participation from over a thousand entrants marking him as a distinctive emerging voice even prior to his feature career
Although he had been involved in filmmaking before, his true breakthrough into mainstream commercial cinema came with Taxiwaala. The film’s success established him as a director capable of packaging unconventional ideas within a commercially viable format, bridging the gap between experimental concepts and mass appeal.
He further expanded his scope with Shyam Singha Roy, a reincarnation-driven period drama that engages with themes of artistic identity, caste oppression, and legacy. The film sparked sections of online discourse regarding certain intimate sequences, particularly a scene involving a young female actor that some viewers interpreted as uncomfortable or unnecessary within the narrative.
Sankrityan’s work often reflects a balance between narrative ambition and commercial sensibilities, positioning him among contemporary Telugu filmmakers attempting to push beyond formula while still operating within it.
