Who is Phat Phish?
Phat Phish is an integrated entertainment and communications company based in Mumbai, India. Its vision is to usher in a new paradigm in the entertainment space, which until now has been untapped and unexploited in India. Founded by Anand Surapur, the company’s operations encompass three divisions: Phat Phish Motion Pictures, Phat Phish Films and Phat Phish Records.
Its music label Phat Phish Records is unique in that it has launched, and continues to launch, an amazing untapped pool of musicians whose sounds resonate regardless of genre or language. Phat Phish Motion Pictures is arguably India’s only true independent film company producing films in India for the world market. Its films are groundbreaking and wholly different from the current popular Bollywood and quasi Bollywood fare. The company’s other division of production, Phat Phish Films, has in the last 10 years built a formidable reputation producing creative and pioneering films for leading brands.
