Shekhar Kapur to Launch AI-Focused Film School in Mumbai’s Dharavi Slum (EXCLUSIVE)
Shekhar Kapur has revealed plans to establish a film school in Mumbai's Dharavi slum, with a focus on AI technology in filmmaking.
The initiative builds on Kapur’s decade-long experience running The Dharavi Project alongside Oscar-winning composer A.R. Rahman, a hip-hop and rap initiative in Dharavi in partnership with Universal Music that has successfully launched several students to national stardom. “Because I know that my future competition is not with the biggest directors in the world, it is with this 15-year-old girl who lives in a slum in Mumbai who understands prompting and will be able to create one-minute, two-minute, 10-minute films just by sitting at the computer … and will be better than me.”
