MUMBAI : Arunabh Kumar created TVF with a vision to deliver relatable stories to audiences. Today, TVF is among the top content creators in the country, leading the way forward. However, this success didn’t come to Arunabh overnight; he paved his journey with the guidance of a mentor who inspired his start—Shah Rukh Khan.
As SRK celebrated his birthday recently, Arunabh took the opportunity to reflect on how his journey began because of SRK. He shared glimpses on social media of his time working on SRK's films and as an Assistant Director. He also wished the superstar a happy birthday, writing:
*From being a Stand-In for his Shots on Om Shanti Om, as an AD (Assistant Director) in 2007, to be able to Direct him for the 1st time on an Online Content in 2014... when Youtube & Viral Videos were still unpopular words... and still He agreed to be a part of the Pilot episode of a show where the idea was to get the Celebs be themselves and have fun...we literally got the BIGGEST SUPERSTAR for the 1st Episode itself and It was his sense of humor, charm and effortless wit that helped us put together Indian Internet's FIRST Online Talk Show...which would not have been possible without him...& encouraged us at TVF to keep working on our stories as he could see the future
It is a rare privilege that the 1st company you work for you get SRK as your Big Boss and I can never thank my stars (& @vaibhavmisra23) enough for giving me the Best Film School that I could get in @redchilliesent with Principal as SRK and amazing Class Teachers like @farahkhankunder @karuna_badwal @vmanikandandop @sabu_cyril @harry.hingorani & so many to learn from...not to mention share Debut work with one of India's Biggest Actresses & Superstars @deepikapadukone with @poojadadlani02 @kanika.d & so many rockstars
Happy Birthday Sir @iamsrk for I truly started my journey in this profession because of you❤❤❤❤❤ (P.S.- Yes, That's me on the LHS / Left of Frame with @theweddingfilmer showing early signs of his future love for Band-Baja-Baraat)"
Moreover, this year, TVF has truly dominated with shows like Sapne Vs Everyone, Very Parivarik, Panchayat Season 3, Kota Factory Season 3, Gullak Season 4, and Arranged Couple.
