YNOT Studios completes 10 years, proceeds with vision

“The enviable repertoire of films includes our collaborations with some of the best names and talent in the industry such as A.R Rahman, Rajkumar Hirani, Aanand L Rai to name a few,” the Studios said.  

Their journey started with the 2010 Tamil-language spoof movie ‘Tamizh Padam’.  Since then, the production house has grown from strength to strength.  “Our successful productions include Balaji Mohan’s bilingual romantic comedy films, ‘Love Failure’ (2013) credited by critics for fresh and innovative narratives. We also produced Vasanthabalan’s, Sudha Kongara’s sports drama ‘Guru’ in 2016, which went on to be made in three languages.  The comedy-drama ‘Shubh Mangal Savdhan’ (2017) as a co-producer, and ‘Game Over’ (2019) were commercial successes that have also received critical acclaim,” a note from the owners says.  

“In 2018, we formed a joint-venture partnership with the Anil D. Ambani led Reliance Entertainment and AP International to produce and distribute films across all languages.  In 2018, we went into marketing and distribution with the label YNOTX Marketing and Distribution. We distributed many content-driven movies such as Tamizh Padam 2 (2018), Super Deluxe (2019), Game Over (2019) and 83 (2020) among many others. The active marketing division has gone on to execute promotions of several prestigious projects since its inception. In 2019, we dove into the world of music with the label YNOT Music. We will be releasing a very exciting catalog in the near future,” they add.  

“At the juncture, we are looking forward to creating more, inspiring cinema, and the road ahead looks as exciting as ever. We couldn’t be more thrilled to share this journey with all of you.
