Case Study — Film

Kathika Cultural Centre

Havelis of Old Delhi

Old Delhi's havelis weren't disappearing. They were being misread. We didn't make a heritage film. We made a living portrait.

कKaaran

Show these spaces as living culture, not preserved objects worth mourning.

खKhaaka

A five-minute film shaped by depth, not format. Time, not compression.

गGoonj

Kathika became a living cultural museum. Visited by Imtiaz Ali, Kartik Aryan, Urfi Javed. International audiences followed.
