Cinevision

What Cinevision does

Cinevision (legally "Cine Vision Films") is a privately held, founder-owned film production company headquartered in Mohali, Punjab, India. Founded by director-cinematographer Harjit Ricky circa 2006, the company operates with a small team of 1-10 employees and serves the Punjabi entertainment industry with an end-to-end production offering: feature films, documentary films, short films, ad films, commercials, and music videos. Its production catalog includes the theatrical Punjabi films Sirphire (2012), Jatt Airways (2013), Once Upon a Time in Amritsar (2016), and Ucha Pind (2019), as well as historical documentaries on Sikh history such as Baba Banda Singh Bahadur (2010), Chhota Ghallughara, and Wadda Ghallughara, the latter two commissioned by the Punjab Chief Minister's Culture Affair Department. Cinevision claims to have produced more than 300 music videos under Harjit Ricky's direction.

The company runs an integrated production stack built around professional digital cinema hardware — specifically RED EPIC (Epic-X and Epic Dragon) and Arri Alexa camera systems, with 5K/6K acquisition capability — supported by in-house lighting/grip equipment (HMI, Baby, Solar, Softy lights, cranes, tracks, trolleys, 100 kv generators), location scouting across Himachal Pradesh, Rajasthan, Punjab, Uttar Pradesh, Mumbai, and Goa, and a post-production suite covering editing, sound editing/effects, dubbing, music, test screening, and distribution. VFX capabilities include matte paintings, bluescreen/greenscreen live-action compositing, digital animation (3D characters, particle effects, digital sets), and digital FX integration.

Cinevision monetizes through project-based engagements: production fees from feature films (funded partly via theatrical distribution), equipment rental (RED EPIC, Arri Alexa, lighting/grip) to other productions, commercial/advertising film work for clients such as NRI Silk Store, Standard Tractors, Nag Pal Paan Masala, and Daily Post Newspaper, educational institution promotional films, and government/religious commissions from the SGPC and Punjab state government. Pricing is quote-based and not publicly disclosed. The company is self-funded, founder-controlled, and shows no institutional capital, acquisitions, or disclosed revenue.
