Films as a producer/director

In 2019, he started a production company with the intent of producing small budget content based films under Rs. 1 Crore. His first film, '' Tony'', was released on 29 November 2019 in 150 theaters across India and worldwide digitally. The film received high praise on IMDb and book my show with a rating of 8.5 on IMDb. The film also garnered decent reviews from the media and critics. The Times of India gave the film 2.5 rating out of 5 and said "All-in-all, 'TONY' tries, but fails to delve deep into the mind-set of a serial killer and turn it into a gripping murder mystery- psychological thriller. If you are a hunter of good content (and good content alone), go... scout for Tony!"
Australian film blogger and indie film critic Richard Gary said "The film reminds me more of the crime shows that have been come out on cable from Europe recently, such as 'Ultraviolet' and 'The Valhalla Murders.' The moments of time stretching are definitely there, but overall, this is still a taut thriller, especially once you pass the 45-minute mark. While the ending I thought up was pretty good but not realized, this still passes the biting the fingernail test (figuratively, not literally)."

''FilmInk'', a prominent Australian Film news website too gave a positive review to the film. "a dense tapestry that manages to engage and unsettle from end to end, with nary a dead spot in sight" said the website.
