Known for making entertaining and socially relevant films in multiple languages for audiences around the globe, Mediente has produced Indie films like Yellow, directed by Nick Cassavetes (starring Sienna Miller, Ray Liotta), Aakasha Gopuram (Mohanlal, Nithya Menen) and controversial films like Battle for Banaras, a documentary on Narendra Modi’s Banaras elections that has been banned by the Indian censor board and Mr. Singh Mrs. Mehta which got stuck as well at the censor board due to nudity.
The album sold over three lakh units and featured super-hit songs like Meri Neend, Gori and She Drives Me Crazy.
Featuring Sudhanshu Pandey, Sherrin Varghese, Siddharth Haldipur and Chaitnya Bhosale, the band was selected from over 1,000 aspiring artists from all over India.
Considered a milestone in Malayalam cinema, Mid Day called Aakasha Gopuram “a brilliant tale of theatrical magnanimity and intellectual prowess... movies like this come once in a while.” In 2009 Mediente produced Tera Kya Hoga Johnny.
Nikhat Kazmi, in her review in The Times of India called the film ‘a rare experience.’ The adultery in the film she wrote ‘is dealt with a degree of understatement and maturity, with a great music score (Ustad Shujat Hussain Khan and Sharang Dev) to translate the emotional quotient on to the screen, makes it a decent watch.’ Mr Singh Mrs Mehta was premiered at PVR Juhu on 24 June 2010 and was attended by industry stalwarts like Anil Kapoor, Satish Kaushik, Poonam Dhillion, Padmini & Tejaswani Kolhapore, Shakti Kapoor, Vashu Bhagnani among others.
Jeremy Clarke from The Guardian in his review said, "Johannes Roberts' warehouse-set monster flick is unexpectedly entertaining",[4] giving the film four stars out of five.
Yellow, an indie drama produced by Mediente and directed by Nick Cassavetes (The Notebook) premiered at Toronto International Film Festival in 2012 to rave reviews.
"The theme is full of hate speeches/inflammatory speeches given by all the leaders falls on different cast, communal talks, derogatory remarks," states the letter.
The writ petition argued that the impugned order dated 4 April of FCAT (upholding censor board’s ruling) is arbitrary, unreasonable and infringes on Manu Kumaran’s fundamental rights.
It seeks quashing of the order and direction from the honourable court to the respondents to sanction and issue a certificate for universalviewing and public exhibition of the film.
The Kannada version was launched in Bangalore on 7 June 2017[9] on actress Parul Yadav’s birthday, who is also essaying the lead role.
