Under the partnership, Drishyam 3—the
much-anticipated Malayalam film headlined by legendary Mohanlal—continues one
of Malayalam cinema’s most commercially successful and globally recognised
thriller franchises. Backed by a strong international track record and high
overseas brand recall, the collaboration strengthens global distribution,
enabling a wider international theatrical rollout and enhanced overseas
box-office potential across key markets.
Next in line is Tikitaka, featuring
Asif Ali in the lead, and the slate concludes with Panorama Studios
Production No. 3, starring Kunchacko Boban and Lijomol Jose, further
reinforcing Panorama Studios’ focus on strong, content-driven Malayalam cinema.
Under this collaboration, Phars Film, founded by
Ahmad Golchin, will be solely responsible for the overseas worldwide
distribution and exhibition of these Malayalam films across multiple
international territories. Leveraging its strong global distribution
capabilities and its extensive cinema network, PHF is a key player in the
international market, handling a critical mass of Hollywood, Bollywood, and
world cinema content.
Speaking on the association, Kumar Mangat
Pathak, Chairman, Panorama Studios, said, “International markets
are increasingly central to the success of Indian films. Phars Film’s global
distribution strength and market understanding make them a strong partner for
this slate, which reflects our focus on story-led, talent-driven cinema.”
Ahmad Golchin, Founder, Phars Film, added, “Panorama
Studios has consistently delivered high-quality, content-rich Indian cinema
that travels well internationally. We are excited to collaborate with them on
this diverse and powerful slate and ensure they reach audiences worldwide in a
meaningful and impactful way.”
Both companies see this collaboration as a
long-term step toward building a robust global pipeline for Indian films with
strong international appeal.
