What we do

A Legacy Rooted in Media and Mission

In the early 1980s, when television was still finding its feet in India and only two channels filled the airwaves, we were there—on the frontlines, pioneering the use of media to share stories of faith, hope, and transformation. From grassroots productions like Jembulingam to wide-reaching broadcasts, our vision was bold: to use every available screen as a canvas for truth.

Our mission didn’t stop at national borders. By the 80s, our work had made ripples across continents. Europe took notice. Sweden’s Dagen, a prominent Christian newspaper, highlighted the groundbreaking ways we were using film and media to spread the gospel. Their words captured a truth we hold to this day: media is a powerful bridge between cultures, stories, and souls.

From India to Sweden, from Hollywood studios to quiet villages, we carried a singular message wrapped in creativity and purpose. The tools have evolved, but the mission remains unchanged.

Films That Told Stories, Stories That Changed Lives

We were storytellers before storytelling was an industry buzzword. Every film we produced in those early days—every scene, every reel—reflected the heartbeat of communities we served. Stories of transformation, testimonies of hope, and voices of the unheard found their place on screens that lit up living rooms and hearts alike.

Today, these films stand as a testament to the power of purpose-driven media. They remind us of what’s possible when passion meets craft.

One of our pioneering projects, “Sembulingam,” was produced in the 1980s and aired to millions across the globe. This impactful film tells the story of transformation and hope, resonating with audiences from all walks of life. Through Sembulingam’s journey, viewers are introduced to the profound message of the gospel.
Throughout the 1980s and 1990s, we continued our mission by producing impactful films that conveyed powerful messages of faith and redemption. Some of the films include “Sembulingam, Enemy God and Where is Peace?
Produced in the 1990s, this film featured renowned actor Thalaivasan Vijay, known for his roles in mainstream Indian cinema. Portraying a man whose troubled past leads him down a dark path, Vijay’s character experiences a life-changing encounter that guides him toward redemption.
In the 2000s, we produced “All Things Are New,” a landmark television series that aired for 13 consecutive weeks on Indian television. This impactful program delved into themes of transformation, hope, and renewal, resonating deeply with audiences across the nation.
