Why Did Rajasthani Cinema Fall Behind?
Despite being the backdrop for countless global productions, Rajasthan's own cinematic voice remains unheard.
No System or Process
Local creatives lack standard operating practices for filmmaking.
Impact: 85% of local projects fail due to poor planning and lack of structured workflows
Solution: Establish industry-standard SOPs and comprehensive training programs
Lack of Unity & Discipline
Artists and technicians remain unorganised, scattered, and unsupported.
Impact: Fragmented talent pool reduces collective bargaining power and professional standards
Solution: Create unified artist associations, guilds, and professional bodies
No Industry Infrastructure
No Film City, editing suites, or equipment hubs in Rajasthan.
Impact: Projects relocate to Mumbai/Hyderabad, resulting in loss of local employment
Solution: Develop comprehensive Rajasthan Film City and technical infrastructure
No Film Education
Youth are deprived of access to film studies and workshops.
Impact: Limited career opportunities and untapped creative potential
Solution: Establish film schools, workshops, and mentorship programs
No Industry Body
Unlike Bollywood or Tollywood, no unions or creative councils exist.
Impact: No protection for artists, lack of standards, and difficulty securing funding
Solution: Establish regulated bodies, unions, and creative councils
No Recognition System
Folk artists die nameless, traditional knowledge is being lost forever.
Impact: Cultural heritage and invaluable artistic skills disappearing without documentation
Solution: Create annual awards, documentation projects, and comprehensive artist welfare programs
