Shinku is a filmmaker based in New Delhi, India, making his directorial debut with his short film "Manu." He categorizes his artistic style under Magical Realism as he creates art through the lens of his personal experiences and then molds the world in his film to blur the division between reality and imagination. He likes to explore states of the human condition that often go unexplored and intent to make films that challenge assumptions about and within his country. His next goal is to create a feature film that presents India to the international cinema and disrupts the way cinema is created and viewed in India.
