The
studio is building original, globally scalable content from India while lending
its creative and technical expertise to larger collaborations
Mumbai,
April 07, 2026 : Kayhan Entertainment Private Limited
is entering its next phase of growth as a next-generation storytelling studio
focused on creating original intellectual property (IP) for global audiences.
Kayhan was founded with a clear vision to blend strong storytelling with
world-class VFX and CGI. The studio is focused on delivering high-quality
visual experiences across films, television, advertising, and digital
platforms, combining creative thinking with technical precision.
At
a time when India has established itself as a global hub for VFX and animation
services, Kayhan represents a strategic shift in approach. While the industry
has long contributed to large-scale international projects, ownership of
stories has remained limited. Kayhan is addressing this gap by moving from
execution to ownership, and from project-based work to building original,
culturally rooted content designed to scale globally leading with IP ownership
while remaining open to strategic collaborations where its animation, VFX, and
creative expertise can add value at scale.
Founded
by Dalbir Singh and Arushi Govil, the studio brings together complementary
strengths across creative vision and production execution. Dalbir Singh, with
over 15 years of experience in VFX and filmmaking, has worked on global
productions such as Avengers: Endgame, Zack Snyder’s Justice League, and Venom,
and leads the creative direction of the studio. Arushi Govil brings a strong
production background, having worked with leading studios including MPC,
Framestore, and DNEG on films such as Tenet, Mission: Impossible – Fallout, and
Brahmastra, and focuses on building structure and clarity in large-scale
creative execution.
Since
its inception Kayhan’s journey has been focused on building a strong creative
and production ecosystem alongside developing original IP while developing a
pipeline of original content. A key milestone has been the launch of its first
IP, “Chote Tara Ka Bada Gadar,” on Kids Zee in 2025, reflecting its ability to
take culturally rooted storytelling to a mainstream platform. Further expanding
its IP slate, Kayhan is Introducing FAB 5, an original animated series that
reflects its focus on scalable, character-driven storytelling. Designed as a
fast-paced episodic format, FAB 5 blends action, humour, and emotional
storytelling, while reinforcing themes of teamwork, courage, and kindness
positioning it as a culturally resonant property with potential for long-term
franchise development across platforms.
Speaking
about the vision behind Kayhan, Dalbir Singh, Co-Founder, said, while we
bring deep expertise in animation and VFX that we are happy to lend to the
right collaborations, our primary focus is building an IP-led creative enterprise.
Adding
to this, Arushi Govil, Co-Founder, said, “As we scale, our focus is on
building the right mix of talent and capability. India has an incredible pool
of creative potential, but the real opportunity lies in nurturing that talent
within strong production ecosystems. At Kayhan, we are investing in people as
much as we are in IP bringing together global experience and emerging creators
to build stories that can compete at an international level. Expansion for us
is not just about growing output, but about building depth in creative
thinking, execution, and long-term storytelling capability.”
Looking
ahead, Kayhan aims to evolve into an IP-led ecosystem built across multiple
verticals, including media and storytelling, consumer and merchandise, education
and talent development through Macra, and experiences and distribution such as
AR and VR. A key focus will also be on building an IP incubator and developing
transmedia storytelling formats, where a single story can extend across
animation, gaming, and immersive platforms.
As
the company enters its next phase of growth, its long-term vision remains clear
to build a globally relevant storytelling company from India, creating IP that
travels across formats, markets, and time. Today, the company operates with a
growing team of professionals, combining international production experience
with an evolving in-house setup.
