Known for his ability to navigate multiple genres with ease, Kookie Gulati has made a name for himself as a director who can turn any script into cinematic gold. As he prepares for the release of his latest film Visfot, which will stream online starting September 6, 2024, it's clear that his journey in the industry is one that deserves a closer look.


Kookie Gulati's directorial ventures


Kookie Gulati’s directorial career is a testament to his remarkable range and adaptability. From the adrenaline-pumping action of Prince to the rib-tickling comedy of Total Dhamaal, Gulati has proven that he’s not bound by any single genre. His work as a creative director on Total Dhamaal displayed his knack for handling complex, large-scale productions with finesse, while his directorial debut with Prince established him as a filmmaker who could deliver blockbuster hits.


One of Gulati’s most notable projects, The Big Bull, showcased his ability to craft narratives that delve into the intricacies of human ambition and moral ambiguity. Based on true events, this semi-biopic received praise for its gripping storyline and Abhishek Bachchan’s powerful performance. Gulati’s direction ensured that the film was not just a retelling of historical events, but a deep exploration of character and consequence.


 



Further cementing his reputation as a director who can handle intense drama, Gulati helmed Dhokha: Round D Corner. This one-day thriller was a departure from the larger-than-life spectacles he had become known for, instead offering a taut, character-driven story that kept audiences on the edge of their seats. The film was a critical success, proving that Gulati’s strength lies in his ability to tell stories that are both engaging and thought-provoking.
