"I believe that in a great city, or even in a small city or a village, a great theatre is the outward and visible sign of an inward and probable culture."

~ Laurence Olivier

MUSICASTLE - Our Workshops

Theatre is more than a form of art, it is a way of life. At Mahodari, we invite participants into a vibrant learning family where students and faculty collaborate to develop both the artist and the individual.

Our mission is to develop engaged students through intensive educational and psychological opportunities in a liberal arts environment, promoting collaborative growth and social change.

Therapeutic use of drama is a core methodology at Mahodari Entertainment Pvt. Ltd. Our workshops emphasize play therapy as an effective intervention for children’s mental health and brain development, helping participants improve emotional regulation, social integration, trauma resolution, and communication.

We use drama therapy across hospitals, schools, mental health centers, prisons, and businesses for individuals, couples, families, and groups. Our flexible methods align with school timetables and support young people, including those with behavioral challenges.

About OPEN FORUM

The OPEN FORUM is a comprehensive guide to everything that's happening in and around Indian content for media such as audio-visual, film, ad-films, documentary, and more. This includes hotels, attractions, transport and events, to help visitors plan their perfect trip. Our editors showcase the best of India, on www.mahodari.com and our media channels - Ten News.

Noida is not the easiest city in India to make anybody an actor. It is also a very expensive experience for occasional speaking parts in television and film or performing under big banners on a regular basis. It is an inevitable breeding ground for frustration. But what are the rest of the truly gifted performers to do if they want to make a living in show business? Move to Mahodari Entertainment Pvt. Ltd., situated at Noida.

According to Dr. Ashish Gautam, casting director for Mahodari Entertainment Pvt. Ltd., the company responsible for bringing pantomimes, theatre, and more to Indian audiences, few successful performances put on in Noida today are cast in India. Why? "Mahodari performers are simply better trained," he says, adding: "The workshops in Mahodari Entertainment Pvt. Ltd. place equal emphasis on all three areas of pantomimes, theatre and film making - singing, dancing, acting - making for an extremely well-rounded education."

At least once a year our team travels to the countryside in search of new talent. What they are in the market for depends upon the particular show they are casting. However, as shared by the team: "We're always on the lookout for exceptional tap dancers as well as performers who can both sing and dance - they just don't exist in India."

Development

Mahodari Entertainment Pvt. Ltd. supports feature film project development, from treatment stage through pre-production. We prioritize projects with strong cultural values and societal contribution. We support world-class live-action, documentary, animated feature films, and cross-platform projects with a feature film at their core.

We encourage teams to build audience demand from the earliest stages. We work with filmmakers on inclusion plans and offer audience-testing, brand-extension, and networking opportunities at key development stages.

Teams applying for development funding should evidence prior writing, directing, and producing experience. Less experienced talent should refer to our OPEN FORUM TALENT NETWORK. This nationwide talent development programme is committed to discovering the next generation of Indian film writers, directors, and producers.

Production

Mahodari Entertainment Pvt. Ltd. supports feature film projects with production and completion funding. We prioritize projects involving India-born or India-based writers, directors, or producers, while also considering films with significant Indian cultural value and opportunities for Indian talent.

We make 3-6 production or completion awards each year. We support world-class live-action, documentary and animated feature films, and cross-platform projects that have feature films at their core.

We look for unique stories speaking to varied audiences, especially those under-represented in mainstream cinema. Inclusion behind the camera, on-screen, and for audiences remains central to our approach in and for India.

Company Support

Mahodari Entertainment Pvt. Ltd. is committed to supporting Indian talent and contributing to a thriving, diverse indigenous film infrastructure.
