Vashu Bhagnani: News

Working as a film producer in Bollywood for the last 26 years, Vashu Bhagnani is the owner of the production and distribution company Pooja Entertainment. Hailing from Kolkata, West Bengal, he was always intrigued by establishing a career in the entertainment industry. After relocating to Mumbai, Bhagnani launched Pooja Entertainment in 1995, and the same year, he produced his first film. He debuted as a producer with the film ‘Coolie No. 1’ (1995), starring Govinda and Karisma Kapoor, which became a super hit film. Over the next decade, Bhagnani produced many hit films in Hindi cinema, including ‘Hero No. 1’, ‘Pyaar Kiya Toh Darna Kya’, ‘Bade Miyan Chote Miyan’, and ‘Shaadi No. 1’. In 2011, Bhagnani produced the film ‘F.A.L.T.U.’, which marked the debut of his son Jackky Bhagnani in the industry. In the following years, even though he produced a lot of movies, none of them emerged as a hit at the box office. In 2016, he produced ‘Sarbjit’, which has been one of the best creations of Hindi cinema. As of 2021, ‘Bell Bottom’ is the latest film produced by Bhagnani under his banner.
