A boutique production house
and studio led by Producer-Director duo Purvi Khan and Afroz Khan, Orange
Elephant has a dazzling line-up of long-format fiction content that it has just
put into production! Creating films and shows
that adhere to intricate aesthetic choices and themes is a bold choice in a
market that’s flooded with content, but that’s the only way to create content
according to this dynamic duo. Boasting a portfolio that spans from advertising
to feature films to digital and branded content, the studio aspires to create
selective premium fiction owing to its love of film and the art of cinema. Director-Writer Afroz Khan
and Producer Purvi Khan proudly announced the screening of their first Short
film, ‘Rat in the Kitchen’ starring veteran actor Mantra Mugdh and surreally
beautiful and extremely talented actor Aishwarya Desai. A classic ‘Film-Noir’, Rat
in the Kitchen is Directed by the young and promising Arkish Aftab. The film
follows a man spiraling into an unhealthy lifestyle of alcoholism and
bitterness, a metaphor for the apathy and negligence in our society. Having already won reputable
awards like ‘Best Actor’ at the 13thDadasaheb Phalke Film Festival and
‘Best Editing’ at 12thKolkata Shorts International Film
Festival, the film is also a finalist at ‘Prisma – Rome independent film
awards’, an official selection at ‘Lift-Off Global Network Sessions 2023’ and
‘Bengaluru International Short Film Festival’ which qualifies the film for the
Oscars! With that being their
project, Orange Elephant is paving its own path to being India’s very own ‘A24
Films’ like studio. Screening in Versova, Mumbai
on the 13th of August 2023, ‘Rat in the Kitchen’
is already making waves and gathering praise and acclaim. A link to the screening
