What is Paul Diamond Productions?

Hey everyone,

First of all, thank you very much for logging on to our blog. We being absolutely new into the industry need support of our fans and viewers. So please make this blog popular and share it with all you know.

Now what is Paul Diamond Productions?

Our little team as of now consists of some of the 2nd year students of University of Petroleum and Energy Studies, Dehradun.
1. Rajarshi Mukherjee (Founder - Direction and Post-production)
2. Anupam Prashant Mujumdar (Co-Founder - Head of Marketing, Distribution and Operations)
3. Pranav Bharadwaj (Creative Advisor)

Our little enterprise is not yet registered yet but we seriously mean to register it.

We often face the question as to why we did select "Paul Diamond" as a name for our enterprise.
I guess the time has come to bring it out in the open.
About 20-25 years ago a gentleman named Mr. Soumitra Sankar Mukherji had a dream of making it big on the 70mm and revolutionize the concept of Indian film making. It is that dream which I (Rajarshi Mukherjee, his son) carry in front of us. This name "Paul Diamond" was initially an idea that came to the minds of the aforesaid gentleman and it is a respect and honor we carry on under this banner. Although PDP is a personal enterprise at the moment, it has a dream to reach the silver screen and create an indelible mark on it. For that we require public support which I believe only you can give us.

Regular updates shall be posted on this blog from time to time. Follow us and stay updated on our latest events. And please feel absolutely free to write to about any feedback, comment suggestions, criticisms etc.

Warm regards

The Shadow

Hi,

 Apart from the various experiments made, "The Shadow" was the first time attempt to make something longer than about 1min. It has a total run-time of 6min 10secs and is till date the longest movie produced. The budget or the actual out-of-pocket expenditure for this venture was astonishingly zero.

The Shadow is a short film made in the Horror / Thriller genre. You can watch it at the link below:

This maiden venture of PDP managed to create an impression in the hearts of many (Thanks to Anupam for the amazing marketing strategies). Although it has been criticized on the basis of the lack of coherence and logic, it has a great sentimental value for our team. However, it should be pointed out that this venture was anything but preplanned. Every part was shot in promptu. Even the idea of making a short movie came to us about half an hour before the first take.

More on it in the next post.
