India’s Founder Film Studio
Talking Ants makes cinematic founder films for Indian founders.
One film that works for fundraising, hiring, PR, and legacy — permanently.
Founder Film in Action
AMTZ is building the infrastructure for India's medical independence. We made a film that captures the founder's conviction and the zone's scale — so anyone who watches it understands what's being built, and why it matters.
Is this for you?
THIS IS FOR YOU IF…
You have a ghostwriter but every post sounds like someone trying to sound like you.
You have a PR retainer but cannot point to a single thing it produced that still matters.
You are raising a round and need investors to believe in you before you walk in the room.
You are losing senior hires to companies with bigger names and louder stories.
You have built something significant and been featured nowhere.
You have been building for a decade and want it documented before the details fade.
If you read any of these and thought — that is me — keep reading.
The Founder Film
A week after your film goes live your investor forwards it to two partners before the meeting. A journalist embeds it in a piece they were already writing. A candidate watches it three times before they say yes.
This is what a founder film does. Not because it is a great video. Because it is the truest thing anyone has ever seen about you.

WHAT YOUR FILM DOES FOR YOU.
Raising a Round
Stop explaining yourself in the first fifteen minutes. Your film already did it.
Hiring Senior People
Stop losing candidates to bigger brand names. Your film makes you the most compelling option in the room.
Getting Media Coverage
Stop doing three calls before every piece. Your film is the briefing document journalists actually watch.
Building on Stages
Stop starting from zero with every organiser. Your film is the reason they say yes before you pitch.
Leaving Something Behind
Stop relying on people's memory. Your film is the permanent record of what you built and why it mattered.
How it works
THREE STEPS.
ONE FILM. FOREVER.
01
WE FIND YOUR STORY.
One conversation. We ask the questions nobody has asked you before. We find the version of your story you stopped telling — the one before the pitch deck, before the PR training, before you learned to stay on message.
02
WE FILM IT.
One shoot day. Two cameras. Directed, not just recorded. We handle everything. You show up and tell the truth.
03
YOU OWN IT FOREVER.
A cinematic film delivered within two weeks. Yours to publish, share, embed in a pitch deck, play before a keynote, and send to every room you are about to walk into.
Who we are
TWO FILMMAKERS.
ONE OBSESSION.
Most founders lead with the product. The story that closes rounds, wins hires, and fills stages is personal. Indian founders are especially good at editing it out. We sit across from them and find what got left behind. We have done it fifty times. We know where it hides.
VYAS BHARGAV
Founder & Director
A decade in brand strategy led to one discovery: the story a founder tells about themselves is almost never the most compelling version of it. He sits across from founders and finds the one they stopped telling.
PRAMOD JOIS
Co-Founder & Creative Director
Cinema-quality storytelling is an art and a technical obsession. Pramod brings both — in service of films that are as strategically sharp as they are visually precise.
