The Prannath Multimedia Processing - Anadii Chaturvedi Felicitated for - Iconic Director of the year
I don't have any godfather in the industry nor does my family belong to the industry so when you get an award for your work, it is an amazing feeling," says filmmaker Anadii Chaturvedi who is basking in the success of his latest show Chhatrasal, which was released in July on MX Player. The historical show based on the real life hero, has been one of the most watched web-series and has been a hit with the family audience.

Chaturvedi was recently awarded the Iconic Director Of The Year award at the mid-day International Showbiz Icons. Talking about it he adds, "Every award is really motivating and it just encourages us to do better than last time. What made it even more special was that we received the award from Vivek Oberoi who is one of the finest actors in the industry. The idea is to do good work in the future and keep getting more rewards."
The success of Chhatrasal has become a benchmark for the filmmaker and he just wants to be better at his craft in the future, "I have always been taught that you are your own competition. Of course the idea is to do something better and bigger than your past work. I don't feel intimidated by the success of the show. In fact, it has just inspired me because the audience has shown a lot of love to show and I am really obliged to all of them. Chhatrasal was a show which was seen by the kids as well as adults and I feel it is my duty to make a show irrespective of any genre which can be watched by the entire family together. My idea is to keep entertaining the family audience."
The filmmaker has already started working on his next and is currently in Kashmir for a reece, "We are doing a film which is based out of the valley. It is going to be a hard-hitting film. It is a story of two kids who are best friends and how their friendships lead to change in the society. We are planning to start shooting the film in a couple of months. We are also working on the prequel of Chhatrasal, which is going to be a story of Lord Prannath, whom Chhatrasal followed. We have started writing the story. We are also working on another web-series. I am also working on a comedy-drama which is set in Kanpur which we will begin shooting in summer 2022.
Along with his wife Rachell Ambrose who was also the creative producer on Chhatrasal, Chaturvedi has launched his own production house ARC Motion Pictures, "We are producing all our future projects under this banner. There is a lot of work which is happening and both Rachel and I are really excited. We want to expand and come up with quality content and meaningful cinema, something that is entertaining and yet at the same time gives out a good message to the audience."
