ASHISH LAL

In FY2025-26, ' revenue grew by 250%!

This comes on top of 400% revenue growth in FY2024-25 over the previous FY.

RedAsh Films is not an equity funded company but consciously a purely bootstrapped one.

Rising at such a fast pace in the last two years is heartening and gives the confidence that the old school style of building a strong business brick by brick can also be successful in an age when hundreds of crores of equity funding takes the company to a skyrocketed revenue in just one year.

Growing in this manner takes a long time and it did for us too, but it results in a very strong foundation.

We have a handpicked team of high-ownership individuals in our RedAsh team because of which nobody needs to micromanage and high-productivity leads to great quality consistently.

Our foundation is so strong that even if something unexpected like Covid kills the business entirely, we know how to rebuild the company from scratch & again make it rise at an exponential pace.

Most people think that Founders have a gala time, have loads of money, are their own boss so they can do whatever they want, etc., but those who have actually built a company successfully, & especially in a bootstrapped manner, know that Founders suffer financially, emotionally & sometimes even physically the most. Building a company is a thankless job untill you actually become successful which takes years & sometimes decades - note that 95% of start-ups shut down in the first 5 years.

It has been a pretty difficult journey for me over such a long period, and also for my wife who has supported me unconditionally from behind the scenes, emotionally as well as financially from her regular job. Without her, I would have been among those 95% entrepreneurs who would have been forced to shut down the company. We are happy that we did not give up during our multiple breaking points over multiple years, and therefore we canow see success after years of consistent hard work.

We hope that in FY2026-27, RedAsh can create an impact that will be noticed & appreciated by scores clients & hundreds of millions of people.

Thank you God for everything! 🙏

Blessed to have celebrated Mummy-Papa’s 50th wedding anniversary. The Golden Jubilee celebration was done with a lot of love, emotion and fun on 19th February 2026.

Over 200 loved ones attended and gave their heartfelt wishes and each one talked so highly about their life’s journey. Blessed to be their son.

I have never seen them have a fight even once. Such an exceptional couple is an inspiration for all of us - the amount of respect, love and care they have for each other is simply divine. May they be healthy and happy always. 💕

My honest review of the hyped movie as a film

Overall: brilliantly directed film but loses grip every now and then, especially in the second half, because of its 3.5 hour duration

LIKED
- Direction by is meticulous and brilliant, several notches higher than even URI
- 's performance is subtle but strong; he is the show stealer and till the last 20 min, he seems to be the protagonist and not Ranveer Singh
- 's underplayed performance, for a change, through his eyes stays with you
- The idea of portraying the nation in such an unapologetically powerful manner, the way Hollywood does all the time for the US, is remarkable and should continue; enough of being apologetic, even when you are the victim
- BGM is mind blowing
- Action sequences are g0ry but evokes the emotion they are meant to; the scene of killing Babu Dakait's people was well stylised

DISLIKED
- Too long; by second half, there were scenes that felt too stretched; had about 30-40 min been edited out, it would have been an edge of the seat thriller; the makers must have debated about it and decided not to lose the way the story is told
- Original songs are stylish and good while watching the movie but not so good that they stay with you after you leave the theatre

Part 2 releasing in March will be a massive blockbuster, way bigger than part 1.

Watched . Here's my honest review:

This movie totally deserves the hype it is getting! It deserves to be a blockbuster, undoubtedly; it made on its own without any big star cast or huge marketing gimmicks, but by sheer power of a beautiful love story told in an even more beautiful way.

Absolutely brilliant direction by , his best till date. This is modern age writing and direction where something happens before you can think and it also moves the story forward. It's crisp, fast paced and heart touching too - what more can one ask for in 2025?

Loved the endearing and soul stirring performance of . What a talent!

The movie has soul in it and it's a well made love story of youngsters.

Loved the screenplay how one thing leads to another without a single dull moment.

also fits the role. Music is decent though not as good as some of other Mohit Suri's films - all songs sound similar and none stand out as super special like Tum Hi Ho stood out in Aashiqui2.

If you brushed it aside as if it is only for GenZ, you really need to think again. My advice - GrowYoung please! :)

Happy Birthday dearest Mummy. ❤️ You are the epitome of love, care, talent, hard work and honesty. 🙏 God bless you with good health and happiness always. 😊
