Raj Nidimoru and Krishna DK are award-winning filmmakers. They write, direct and produce their films together, both in USA and in India.
99, their second feature, a mainstream Hindi film, was a big hit at the Indian box office, and was No 1 four weeks in a row.
Its long and successful run was due to the terrific reviews from the media - both national and international - and exceptional word of mouth.
It was the official entry at over a dozen prestigious international film festivals, including Hamptons, Milan, Cairo, Durban, Bangkok, Mumbai and Hawaii International Film Festivals.
FLAVORS is now showing on HBO in Europe, Star Movies in South Asia and is available at Blockbuster and Netflix.
THEIR latest short film, SHOR, is a fast-paced, edgy satire that is doing rounds at some of the top film festivals in the world.
SHOR was shortlisted at Cannes Film Festival and won Best Film Award at MIAAC Film Festival, New York. It also played to great reception at the Top Two short film festivals in the US: Palm Springs and LA Shorts.
The Engineering graduates, Raj and DK, are now working on two ambitious features.
SITA MENON is the Creative Partner of D2R Films. A senior and accomplished media professional, Sita writes with Raj and DK, and works in various capacities in designing and developing film projects.
Earlier, Raj Nidimoru and Krishna DK were awarded DIRECTOR OF THE YEAR by the South Asian Students’ Alliance (SASA) in California and were nominated for BEST EMERGING DIRECTOR Award at AAIFF, New York, for their feature, FLAVORS.
FLAVORS, their first feature, remains a cult hit, especially among the Indian expatriates. A film festival winner, it won rave reviews from around the world (‘Refreshing, Lively and Slick’: Hollywood Reporter), and had great reception during its theatrical run in USA and in India.
