Biography

Krishna DK and Raj Nidimoru, a dynamic writer-director-producer duo, are renowned for their innovative and original content that skillfully blends genres and brings fresh, quirky humor to Indian cinema. Their latest venture, the number one series in the country, The Family Man, is an espionage drama that has garnered immense popularity.

Their debut feature, Flavors, released in 2003, received widespread critical acclaim and has since become a cult classic, particularly among Indian expatriates worldwide. The film won numerous awards and was an official selection at over a dozen prestigious international film festivals.

Following the success of Flavors, the duo transitioned to a mainstream Hindi film, 99, in 2009. 99 was a sleeper hit at the Indian box office, topping the charts for four consecutive weeks. The film received outstanding reviews from both the media and the audience, including four-star reviews from The New York Times and Rediff.com.

The duo's subsequent films showcased their versatility, as they explored contrasting genres. Shor In The City was hailed as the best film of the year, while Go Goa Gone, India's first stoner comedy, brought a new wave of humor to the industry.

Their latest film, the horror comedy Stree, was a massive commercial success and is considered one of the most profitable films of all time.
