Proma FILMMAKER / INFLUENCER | MUMBAI

I am Pratik Wanjari (PROMA). I am from India.
I decided to be a director when I was fourteen years old. I was in my tenth grade and studied about world wars in history. I was inspired by the stories of the wars and started writing stories based on the same subject. I had little clue what to do with those stories until I watched Saving Private Ryan .This movie based on second world war inspired me to be a filmmaker.
I come from a middle class family in India. Medicine, engineering and finance dominate the discussion of studies. Films are never even considered as an option. I never even contemplated telling my parents about my dream for the fear of getting rejected. So, treading on a conventional path seemed to be a far better option.
